But Not Today Lyrics & Chords By Marc Almond

Flowers on the rail
So sadly in the rain
Tomorrow they'll decay
But not today

They miss you and they cry
So young they weep oh why
In rain and cold they'll stay
But not today

Today my world is lightning up with laughter
Today's the day that I forget to cry
Today's a kind of happy ever after
Today is the day you didn't die

Photo on the gate
To watch them as they wait
A silence as they pray
But not today

Softly singing songs
Hymns that to you belong
Say what they need to say
But not today

Today the sun will shine a little brighter
Today's the day my heart begins to fly
Today my troubles feel a little lighter
Today is the day you didn't die

A lonely teddy bear
So sadly hanging there
A child without its play
But not today

A vigil every year
And poems splashed with tears
So nearly was that way
But not today

But not today
But not today
But not today
