Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I got your letter today

And I miss you all so much here

I can't wait to see you all

And I'm counting the days here

I still believe that there's gold

At the end of the world

And I'll come home to Illinois

On the day after tomorrow

[Verse 2]

And it's so hard and it's cold here

And I'm tired of taking orders

And I miss old Rockford town

Up by the Wisconsin border

What I miss, you won't believe

Shovelling snow and raking leaves

And my plane will touch down

On the day after tomorrow

[Verse 3]

I close my eyes every night

And I dream that I can hold you

They fill us full of lies, everyone buys

About what it means to be a soldier

I still don't know how I'm supposed to feel

'Bout all the blood that's been spilled

Will God, on His throne, get me back home?

On the day after tomorrow

[Verse 4]

You can't deny the other side

Don't want to die anymore than we do

What I'm trying to say, is don't they pray

To the same God that we do?

Tell me how does God choose?

Whose prayers does he refuse?

Who turns the wheel? Who throws the dice?

On the day after tomorrow

[Verse 5]

I am not fighting for justice

I am not fighting for freedom

I am fighting for my life

And another day in the world here

I just do what I've been told

We're just the gravel on the road

And only the lucky ones come home

On the day after tomorrow

[Verse 6]

And the summer, it too will fade

And with it brings the winter's frost, dear

And I know we too are made

Of all the things that we have lost here

I'll be twenty-one today

I've been saving all my pay

And my plane will touch down

On the day after tomorrow

[Outro]

And my plane, it will touch down

On the day after tomorrow
