lyrics

I got black leather on my coat
Holding my breath, I’m just trying to stay afloat
Waiting for death, singing songs that I’ve wrote,
Mm mm mmm….
I’ve been drinking my fair share of whisky and wrath
I’ll bury my face in these old photographs
And wait while I waste in the tears and the laughs
Mm mm mmm….
But tonight while I’m laying my head to rest
I’ll think of my loved ones and I’ll wish them my best
I’ll cherish each breath, for tomorrow I’m not waking up…
And I’ll live in a dream ‘til they put me in the ground
A life without timing, no limits to bound me
The church bell will chime, for tomorrow I’m not waking up…
No I’m not waking up…
The wind through the trees sings a song we all know
The man who’s approaching the finale of his show
The audience in black, singing sorrow and woe
Oh oh ohh….
And as Gabriel puts on his wings to descend
The thoughts of approaching our imminent end
The meeting one-day that we all must attend
Oh oh ohh…
But tonight while I’m laying my head to rest
I’ll think of my loved ones and I’ll wish them my best
I’ll cherish each breath, for tomorrow I’m not waking up…
And I’ll live in a dream ‘til they put me in the ground
A life without timing, no limits to bound me
The church bell will chime, for tomorrow I’m not waking up…
I’m not waking up…
I’m not waking up
I’m not waking up…
I’m not waking…
But tonight while I’m laying my body to the sheet
A warmthness comes over me, my head to my feet
I surrender my soul and I accept my defeat
Mm mm mmm…
And I’ll sleep with a smile and a heart full of love,
I’m staring down the reaper; yeah I’m calling his bluff,
I’ve got a heart torn but tough, oh tomorrow I’m not waking up….
Oh I’m not waking up
I’m not waking up…
I’m not waking up
I’m not waking…
But tonight while I’m laying my head to rest
I’ll think of my loved ones and I’ll wish them my best
I’ll cherish each breath for tomorrow I’m not waking…
