Come Tomorrow
Composer(s): Townes Van Zandt
First release by: Townes Van Zandt



If the song of the songbird
Could replace my wrong word
Then my dear, that's the song I would borrow

And tonight you would hear
The saddest song of the year
And you'd be mine once again come tomorrow

If the song of the swallow
Could reveal my sorrow
Then my dear, he would sing just for you

And tonight you would hear
The saddest song of the year
And you'd be mine once again come tomorrow

Just tonight, while in flight
On your windowsill daylight
To tell you all of my tears

And tonight you would hear
The saddest song of the year
And you'd be mine once again come tomorrow

If the song of the swallow
Could reveal my sorrow
Then my dear, he would sing just for you

And tonight you would hear
The saddest song of the year
And you'd be mine once again come tomorrow

And tonight you would hear
The saddest song of the year
And you'd be mine once again come tomorrow

Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, Mr. Songbird
Come on & sing just one, little swallow
& make her mine once again come tomorrow
