Today and Yesterday

and who would have
ever thought
you could break my heart
again
this second time around
is so much better
and so much worse
it hurts to be happy
here with you
when it could
all end
tomorrow
because today
and yesterday
I can pretend to be
the cure you need
but you can't see
how you are
curing me
this second time
when you are
almost mine
today and
yesterday
it's almost enough
to make me forget
that you still won't love me
tomorrow
