I give you stars and sunshine

A rainbow at your feet each time you rise

So dry your eyes

The house of yesterday is crumblin' at my feet

But I don't mind, I had my time



I am but yesterday

And you my child, tomorrow

There's nothing I can give you

For you have more than me

You are the truth within your youth



I watch you dance and playing

The little prince of all that you survey

Each night, each day

I am the good old days,

And you my child, tomorrow



If I have any future

It is within your eyes

Each time you smile

My child, my child

The hand of life will rock you

I brought you forth

And then my task was through

I give to you

This wondrous view



I am but yesterday

And you my child, tomorrow

And you my child, tomorrow

And you my child, tomorrow
