Tomorrow was Yesterday – I saw
her face Today – Yesterday was
too Early – she did not see my
face Today – Tomorrow was too Late –

I will not talk to her – too Early –
I cannot talk to her – too Late –

Yesterday was Tomorrow – I did
not see her face Today – Yesterday
was too Late – She saw my face
Today – Tomorrow was too early –

I will not talk to her – too Late –
I cannot talk to her – too Early –

I saw her face Today – and she mine –
Today is just right – what do I say?
