We can never know about the days to come But we think about them anyway. And I wonder if I'm really with you now Or just chasing after some finer day Anticipation, anticipation Is making me late Is keeping me waiting And I tell you how easy it feels to be with you And how right your arms feel around me. But I rehearsed those words just late last night When I was thinking about how right tonight might be. Anticipation, Anticipation Is making me late Is keeping me waiting And tomorrow we might not be together I'm no prophet, i don't know nature's ways. So I'll try and see into your eyes right now And stay right here, 'cause these are the good old days.
