Day After Tomorrow Lyrics

I got your letter today

And I miss you all so much here

I can't wait to see you all

And I'm counting the days dear

I still believe that there's gold

At the end of the world and I'll

Come home to Illinois on the

Day after tomorrow

Its so hard and its cold here

And I'm tired of taking orders

And I miss old Rockford town

Up by the Wisconsin border

What I miss you won't believe

Shoveling snow and raking leaves

And my plane will touch down

On the day after tomorrow

I close my eyes every nite

And I dream that I can hold you

They fill us full of lies, everyone buys

Bout what it means to

Be a soldier, I still don't

Know how I'm supposed to feel bout

All the blood that's been spilled

Will God on this throne

Get me back home

On the day after tomorrow

You can't deny, the other side

Don't want to die anymore

Then we do, what I'm

Trying to say is don't they pray

To the same God that we do?

And Tell me how does God

Choose, who's prayers does he

Refuse? who turns the wheel

Who rolls the dice, on the

Day after tomorrow

I'm not fighting for justice

I am not fighting for freedom

I am fighting for my life and

Another day in the world here

I just do what I've been told

We're just the gravel on the road

And only the lucky ones come

Home, on the day after tomorrow

And the summer it too

Will fade and with it

Brings the winter's frost dear

And I know we too are made

Of all the things that we have

Lost here, I'll be 21 today

I been saving all my pay

And my plane will touch down

On the day after tomorrow
