Every  time I look into  the mirror of  my mind
 I barely  recognize the man  I see
 He used  to be a dreamer
 He used  to be like me
 But I can  see the sadness in his eyes
 And he's no longer who  I want to be
 If I could  I would change my yesterday
 I would listen to  my heart  and then today
 I'd see What  true love could  be and I won't let  tomorrow
 I won't let  tomorrow Slip  away
 I feel  the tide is turning and  I'm stranded out at sea
Hoping  for my rescue to arrive
 The clouds  have all turned grey And now the waves  are crashing in
 I thought  I could survive but reality  has got the better  part of me
 If I could  I would change my yesterday
 I would listen to  my heart  and then today
 I'd see What  true love could  be and I won't let  tomorrow
 I won't let  tomorrow Slip  away
I'll  make a promise  to myself
 That I will  live  each day just  like it was the  last time
I'll  ever see your  face again
 If I could  I would change my yesterday
 I would listen to  my heart  and then today
 I'd see What  true love could  be and I won't let  tomorrow
 I won't let  tomorrow Slip  away
