Lyrics

Tomorrow’s Another Day

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

Through the window I listen to the train go by

it’s been a little bit since I’ve been outside

but hey tomorrow’s another day

Been waiting for the sun to show its face

to shed a little light on an ugly place

but hey tomorrow’s another day

PRE CHORUS

As the dawn it comes a creepin’ in

the darkness ends a chance for us

to try again to try another way

Every step along we go

walk the only way we know,

and let the morning lead us on our way

Cause hey

CHORUS

Hey hey tomorrow’s another day

VERSE 2

Pack my things, head out back

walk through the trees along the railroad tracks.

I’m never looking back

But It feels a little bit dead out here,

nothing up ahead is coming in too clear,

maybe the end is drawing near

PRE CHORUS

We all gotta have somethin’ to live for,

wanna have someone to die for

or so the story says

Gotta hold on to ones we love

everybody needs a shove

to get up off the ground and start again

But hey, hey hey

BRIDGE

Hear the story of a life

got lost in a fight

didn’t make no sense, make no sense

How many gotta die

fore’ they see it ain’t right, see it ain’t right

Little hope no light

ain’t nobody gonna fight

nobody gonna stand is it ever gonna end

If we don’t look into the light

VERSE 3

I said today I’m gonna cut the gin

but I drowned myself in a bottle again

well hey, tomorrow’s another day

And there ain’t nothin’ quite like a one night stand

to watch your life slip through your hands

but hey, we’ll all be dead someday

PRE CHORUS

We all got a little voice talks to us

somewhere deep inside us but

do they all sound the same?

Just for once, man I’d like

to hear it say you done good you’ll be OK

just keep your shoulders straight

As the dawn it comes a creepin’ in

the darkness ends a chance for us

to try again to try another way

But hey, hey hey…

CHORUS

Tomorrow’s another day

Tomorrow’s another day

Tomorrow’s another day

 

Let’s Start This Over

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

Lately I’ve been thinking

About the good old days

A little too much drinking

We’d sit back and waste the days away

Hoping that this world would never change

But lately I’ve been sinking in a hole I dug myself

And after all this drinking

It’s harder to remember how it felt

Back before the world had gone to hell

CHORUS

So let’s start this over

And take it back where it all began

Let’s try this sober

Rewrite the rules and play again

Maybe if we learn a little earlier we might

Just start this over

This time we’d get it right

VERSE 2

Since I can remember, I’ve looked into the sky

And dreamt about my future

A compassionate, sophisticated guy

But I must have pictured someone else’s life

Cause now I sit here drinking most every single night

Telling people stories and singing songs about a better life

And If I had another chance to get it right

CHORUS

So let’s start this over

And take it back where it all began

Let’s try this sober

Rewrite the rules and play again

Maybe if we learn a little earlier we might

Just start this over

This time we’d get it right

BRIDGE

Was it something I said was it something I did that it ended up like this?

I’m in over my head and I’m all out of time.

I used to be on the top but now I’m falling behind

Seems I just can’t get it right

But It’s all up to me, I’ve just gotta decide

CHORUS

Let’s start this over

And take it back where it all began

Let’s try this sober

Yah maybe if we set aside the arrogance this time

Maybe if we tried a little harder we could find

Someone better than we’ve been

Somewhere buried deep inside

Cause It’s not over

So this time let's get it right

 

So Far to Go

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

Show me the way but take it slow

I know that I have so far yet to go

Along the way my knees have gotten old

But I'll follow you everywhere you go

VERSE 2

I have driven down so many roads

As many different people come and go

Been looking for the road that leads to home

So show me the way but take it slow

CHORUS

And I know that everything that's in my heart is in my hands

And I know somehow you've been here this whole time helping me stand

When I feel like I've walked all the way from here to Mexico

Still I know

I've got so far to go

VERSE 3

I feel as though my heart it's going cold

The days and nights are steady growing old

As if my story's already been told

Sometimes it feels like I'm ready to go

CHORUS

And I know that everything that's in my heart is in my hands

And I know somehow you've been here this whole time helping me stand

When I feel like I've walked all the way from here to Mexico

Still I know

I've got so far to go

BRIDGE

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

The clock is ticking down ever slow

Tearing out the seams in my clothes in my clothes

It's wearing down the surface of my soul

VERSE 4

Show me the way but take it slow

I know that I have so far yet to go

Along the way my knees have gotten old

But I'll follow you everywhere you go

CHORUS

And I know that everything that's in my heart is in my hands

And I know somehow you've been here this whole time helping me stand

When I feel like I've walked all the way from here to Mexico

Still I know

I've got so far to go

 

Whiskey On Her Lips

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

I was sitting on a bar stool

When she walked over to me

She moved in real close and

And put her lips against my cheek

She said, hey boy I’ve got something

That I’d like you to see

I said hell I’d do anything

Anything you asked of me

VERSE 2

She drained her glass and slammed it

On the bar and took a seat

She poured another whisky

And she slid it down to me

I probably should have passed it up

I was already in too deep

But goddamn

I love the way she looks at me

CHORUS

When she’s got whisky on her lips

Like the seven deadly sins

You better try to hold her back

Boy you best not let her in

Cause when that bottle’s in her grip

And the devil’s on her hips

She’s gonna try to pull you down

With her with every little sip

VERSE 2

A dozen other nights

They all played out just the same

Sometimes we’d wake up in the morning

And forget each other’s names

Head back out in the evening

And we’d play her little game

But man it gets tough

When every single night it ends this way

CHORUS

When she’s got whisky on her lips

Like the seven deadly sins

You better try to hold her back

Boy you best not let her in

Cause when that bottle’s in her grip

And the devil’s on her hips

She’s gonna try to pull you down

With her with every little sip

BRIDGE

I wonder where that girl is now

Still sometimes I think about

Whether she’s still standing or if she fell down

Man I didn’t know what I’d found

What I would not give just to see her now

She might get up and walk right out

Or would she come over and sit right down

For just one more night and one more round

CHORUS

When she’s got whisky on her lips

Like the seven deadly sins

You better try to hold her back

Boy you best not let her in

Cause when that bottle’s in her grip

And the devil’s on her hips

She’s gonna try to pull you down

With her with every little sip

END CHORUS

I wonder where that girl is now

Still sometimes I think about

Whether she’s still standing or if she fell down

Man I didn’t know what I’d found

What I would not give just to see her now

She might get up and walk right out

Or would she come over and sit right down

For just one more night and one more round

 

Been a Long Time

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

Was awake in a dream

Tried to talk to you but couldn’t breathe

Was alone at the edge of the world

Holding hands with some other girl

CHORUS

It’s been a long time since I called you mine

Been a long road and we’re taking our time

Been a long time since I called you a friend

And I’d like to do so once again

VERSE 2

The thought of you just wouldn’t leave

Was a vision I couldn’t believe

And a future I just couldn’t see

A future without you and me

CHORUS

It’s been a long time since I called you mine

Been a long road and we’re taking our time

Been a long time since I called you a friend

And I’d like to do so once again

BRIDGE

She knows all of my desires

She breaks me down and lights the fire

But I turned away from that life

To a place where that fire doesn’t light

CHORUS

It’s been a long time since I called you mine

Been a long road and we’re taking our time

Been a long time since I called you a friend

And I’d like to do so once again

It’s been a long time since I held your hand

Been a long time since you called me your man

Been a long sobering road and I feel like I could love you once again

 

Cold and Lonely Ride

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

There may be something different about me in my life

It's a vacant, sad expression that I wear most of the time

If I could I'd hop a bus to where the sun don't rise

But it's a cold and lonely, cold and lonely ride.

VERSE 2

I need to find a place where they don't know me for my crimes

And fortunately for me I know just the place to hide

It's way beyond my conscience just behind that wall of lies

But it's a cold and lonely, cold and lonely ride

CHORUS

All those voices in my head, made me say the things I said

And there's not gonna be a chance to run

There's not gonna be a chance to run

I've gotta go find a place to hide

But it's a cold and lonely ride

And after all is said and done

There's not gonna be a chance to run

I've gotta go find a place to hide

But it's a cold and lonely ride

VERSE 3

I'd separate myself and the world I'd leave behind

Hoping that somewhere out there, it'll all be cast aside

And I'd stay there undiscovered until the end of time

But it's a cold and lonely, cold and lonely ride

CHORUS

All those voices in my head, made me say the things I said

And there's not gonna be a chance to run

There's not gonna be a chance to run

I've gotta go find a place to hide

But it's a cold and lonely ride

And after all is said and done

There's not gonna be a chance to run

BRIDGE

All those pretty little things

And all those dreams you've had,

Those dreams you've had

Well they don't mean anything

They just leave you sad

CHORUS

All those voices in my head, made me say the things I said

And there's not gonna be a chance to run

There's not gonna be a chance to run

I've gotta go find a place to hide

But it's a cold and lonely ride

And after all is said and done

There's not gonna be a chance to run

I've gotta go find a place to hide

But it's a cold and lonely ride

 

Closet Full of Skeletons

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

This is my confession that I make before I go

On occasion I may not have been the man you know

I should have told you sooner but my head had come unglued

Before I got the nerve you went and got my name tattooed

CHORUS

I've got a closet full of skeletons

Right behind that door

And I'm sorry baby I cannot keep them hidden anymore

VERSE 2

I made my way downtown already had me one or two

Then while at the pub I might have had me another few

As I stepped out the truck that lady cop she told me son

You'd best come with me now cause you've got nowhere left to run

CHORUS

I've got a closet full of skeletons

Right behind that door

And I'm sorry baby I cannot keep them hidden anymore

VERSE 3

I woke one morning with another lady by my side

And 9 months later came another secret I had to hide.

She called me up from half a world away to let me know

He'd taken on a likeness to his daddy as he'd grown.

CHORUS

I've got a closet full of skeletons

Right behind that door

And I'm sorry baby I cannot keep them hidden anymore

VERSE 4

Looking to make a buck I made a deal with shady Lou

To take a shipment south across a state line maybe two

Once again I found myself in trouble with the law

This time though I understood the lesson I'd been taught

CHORUS

I've got a closet full of skeletons

Right behind that door

And I'm sorry baby I cannot keep them hidden anymore

I've got a closet full of skeletons

Right behind that door

And I'm sorry baby I cannot keep them hidden anymore

 

You’re In My Head

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

People come and people go

Often quick and never slow

In and out eachother’s lives

I’ll always try to picture you

Thinking back the way I do

The way that I remember you

VERSE 1B

I see you swinging in the trees

Dress is blowing the breeze

And the wind is in your hair

Summer sun is all around

Casting shadows on the ground

But were you ever really there?

CHORUS

You’re in my head I can’t forget you

In my mind every time I close my eyes

You’d never leave I don’t believe I’d ever let you

But tell me was I yours and were you ever really mine

VERSE 2

Feeling almost like a dream

Getting lost, losing steam

Something made up in my mind

Nearly forgotten, moving on

This life, it rolls along

I fear I’m leaving you behind

VERSE 2B

But as a love it falls apart

The memory it starts

To slowly fade away with time

This is not how it’s supposed to be

You should be right here next to me

You were the best I’ll ever find

CHORUS

You’re in my head I can’t forget you

In my mind every time I close my eyes

You’d never leave I don’t believe I’d ever let you

But tell me was I yours and were you ever really mine

BRIDGE

Please don’t believe I’d ever let you slip away

Into the dark

Cause I could never find

Someone to fill the hole you left inside my head and in my heart

The greatest memory of mine

CHORUS

You’re in my head I can’t forget you

In my mind every time I close my eyes

You’d never leave I don’t believe I’d ever let you

But darling was I yours and tell me were you ever mine

END CHORUS

You’re in my head I can’t forget you

Every time I close my eyes

You’d never leave, I’d never let you

The greatest memory of mine…

The greatest memory of mine.

DESCANT

Please I know darling I’ve been blind

don’t leave me alone I won’t survive

 

Me and You

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

Sit with me now

And talk a bit about yourself

Tell me how you've come to be so shy

Is it the color of your eyes

The way they change a bit in hue

One of them is green the other one is blue

Walk with me now

Beneath the shade of summer trees

When the world is so colorful and new

As I walk along beside you captivated by your smile

You look up at me

As the birds singing just for you

CHORUS

I see trees of green

And the color of the sun

As you lay here in the grass with me until tomorrow comes

I have everything that I could ever want

Right beside me on this little patch of grass

just me and you

VERSE 2

Talk with me now I want to know whats deep inside

All the fears you hold beside your heart

In the depths of your imagination

Memories old and new

I'll share the joy and sorrow, just to sit right here with you

CHORUS

I see trees of green

And the color of the sun

As you lay here in the grass with me until tomorrow comes

I have everything that I could ever want

Right beside me on this little patch of grass

just me and you

BRIDGE

By this time tomorrow

My obsession will not end

I will feel the same way now as I did then

And by this time tomorrow

You'll wake up you'll see

I'll be part of you and you'll be part of me

VERSE 3

Sing with me now forget about everything else

All the distractions we let into our lives

And we'll sing a different song

One that begins with you and me

And ends with us together till the end of history

CHORUS

I see trees of green

And the color of the sun

As you lay here in the grass with me until tomorrow comes

I have everything that I could ever want

Right beside me on this little patch of grass

just me and you

 

Can’t Let You Go

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

I can feel you crawling in my bed at night

I hear you talking in your sleep and I can

See you every time that I turn on the bedroom light

And I still do dream about the time we had

I need to get you the hell out of my head

If not soon I swear to God I’m gonna go insane

CHORUS

I could ride that train down to San Antonio

And sing every song that I know

I could take that plane up and down the coast

And I still can’t let you go

I could wrap my arms around every girl that I

meet everywhere that I go

I can try to forget but I still can’t let you go

VERSE 2

I know too much pain is in the past and

I don’t blame you for never looking back

I know I hurt you and if I could take it back you know I would

But I hope you remember just the best of me

And hold on to the happy memories because

I love you and I know that in my heart, I always will

CHORUS

I could ride that train down to San Antonio

And sing every song that I know

I could take that plane up and down the coast

And I still can’t let you go

I could wrap my arms around every girl that I

meet everywhere that I go

I can try to forget but I still can’t let you go

BRIDGE

I know they say that time heals everything

But I disagree time just makes it sting

All this time alone and will I ever let you go

Cause I could try to pretend but in the end you’re all I know

END CHORUS (Variation)

I could ride that train down to San Antonio

And sing every song that I know

I could take that plane up and down the coast

And I still can’t let you go

I could give my heart to every girl that I

meet everywhere that I go

I can try to forget but I still can’t let you go

 

Let Me Say Goodbye

By Edison Kitt

VERSE 1

I board the plane to Chicago

Watch the world drop away

Staring out that tiny window

Watching as my former life starts to fade

For as long as I can remember

I’ve felt this sorrow in my soul

Many years now these nights are cold and dark

Now my heart is telling me I’ve got to go

VERSE 2

Days went on and we grew closer

It breaks my heart to tell you this

While the bad outweighed the good so many times

There’s still so many things about you I will miss

CHORUS

We found love in a paper cup

The years have all but swallowed up

And now its time to dry your eyes

Though love is just a memory

I feel you holding on to me

Darling please just let me say goodbye

VERSE 3

Now’s it time to draw the curtains

Now’s it’s time to let the wind

Blow us in a new direction

Take us down another path

Where another life waits at the end

CHORUS

We found love in a paper cup

The years have all but swallowed up

And now its time to dry your eyes

Though love is just a memory

I feel you holding on to me

Darling please just let me say goodbye

BRIDGE

It’s time to call an end to

The life we knew so long ago

Broken hearts and broken windows in the past

Now the future is a thing will never know

CHORUS

We found love in a paper cup

The years have all but swallowed up

And now its time to dry your eyes

Though love is just a memory

I feel you holding on to me

Darling please just let me say goodbye

END CHORUS

We found love in a paper cup

The years have all but swallowed up

And now its time to dry your eyes

Our love is just a memory

But I feel you holding on to me

Darling please just let me say goodbye
