Lyrics
Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Puddly pools, oily traces
Storm clouds scudding past the moon
Rusty hinges broken windows
All is broken, all too soon
Here today, gone tomorrow
Shadows in the setting sun
Here today, gone tomorrow
Darkness when the day is done
Broken china doll stares blind
Painted porcelain figurine
Loved to death by those who loved her
Prettiest face you've ever seen
Down the hill houses tumble
Overlapping cheek by jowl
Strike a match, frozen fingers
Restless dog begins to growl
