George MacKay, Kevin Guthrie & Paul Brannigan sky takes the soul

Select language to translate this lyric

It could be tomorrow, or it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay
I sometimes wonder why I pray
When my spirit drives away
With a faith and a bit of luck
And a half-tonne bomb in the back of a truck
It could be tomorrow...
Feel the towel it's wet with sorrow
From the tears we'll shed tomorrow
Don't bring flowers, take a chance
On some graves you should dance
It could be tomorrow...
It it¡s tomorrow, or if it¡s today
I don't say it will be, I just say it may
When I'm on my knees
To the gates I'll stumble
And plead my case
In a style that's humble.
It could be tomorrow...
