Day After Tomorrow

I got your letter today cnd I miss you all so much, here I can't wait to see you all cnd I'm counting the days, here I still believe that there's gold ct the end of the world cnd I'll come home to Illinois On the day after tomorrow cnd it's so hard and it's cold here cnd I'm tired of taking orders cnd I miss old Rockford town Up by the Wisconsin border What I'll miss, you won't believe Shoveling snow and raking leaves cnd my plane will touch down On the day after tomorrow I close my eyes every night cnd I dream that I can hold you They fill us full of lies, everyone buys cbout what it means to be a soldier I still don't know how I'm supposed to feel cbout all the blood that's been spilled Will God, on His throne, get me back home On the day after tomorrow? You can't deny the other side Don't want to die any more than we do What I'm trying to say is, don't they pray To the same God that we do? Tell me, how does God choose? Whose prayers does He refuse? Who turns the wheel? Who throws 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 cnd another day in the world here I just do what I've been told You're just the gravel on the road cnd only the lucky ones come home On the day after tomorrow cnd the summer, it too will fade cnd with it brings the winter's frost, dear cnd I know we, too, are made Of all the things that we have lost here I'll be twenty-one today I've been saving all my pay cnd my plane will touch down On the day after tomorrow cnd my plane, it will touch down On the day after tomorrow
