"I met a man who had a dream He had since he was twenty I met that man when he was eighty-one He said: "Too many folks just stand And wait until the morning Don't they know, tomorrow never comes" And he would feel a new tomorrow coming on And when he'd smile his eyes are twinkled up in thought Everybody talks about a new world in the morning New world in the morning never comes."
