No Tomorrow (R acoustic)
No Tomorrow
Verse
Jim, I'd barely met you when you gazed into my soul
You played the hand that you were dealt, turning deuces into gold
Then you left a trail of breadcrumbs, to guide me on my way
Words on wrinkled paper, worth more than I could pay
Chorus
Saddle up the ponies, let's get away from here
We'll ride where daylight takes us, see each moment clear
Love and live the journey, every sense aglow
Cuz there may be no tomorrow, and if not we'll never know
Jim, you shared life's prism, the wavelengths of a dream
A jewel with many facets, a face, a band, a team
Could you have imagined, can you imagine now
How bright your light keeps shining after you left town.
Saddle up the ponies, let's get away from here
Let's ride where daylight takes us, feel each moment clear
Love and live the journey, every sense aglow
Cuz there may be no tomorrow, and if not we'll never know
Bridge
Nothing to do? No one to call?
No stunning vista or high waterfall?
It's none of my business, I'm a
Fly on the wall
But you need to change your attitude, dispense with all the platitude, feel a little gratitude ... NOW!
Jim, the words you left behind ... put my fears to rest
Last I heard your ship had sailed and it was headed west
I cannot say for certain that our paths will cross again
But I will always hope to see you, up around a bend.
Saddle up the ponies, let's get away from here
Let's ride where daylight takes us, make each moment dear
Love and live the journey, every sense aglow
Cuz there may be no tomorrow, and if not we'll never know
Cuz there may be no tomorrow, and if not we'll never know
No Tomorrow: written in honor of Jim McCaffrey, a Moonalice fan whose courage in the face of cancer inspires the band every day.

Thank you, Roger for recognizing one of our fallen tribe members.
