When the days press upon my mind
For light is short
And dark is long
And the cool reaches my bones
The antique clock reminds me it's five
But five in the morn
Or five at night
For the rainy gray drizzle
Gives not way to shine

Then I should occasion
To remember
Today and tomorrow
Only two days left
To do all
Today and tomorrow
Two days 'till the clouds will fall
And the blue will arise

Remembering each day is ours
Each moment each hour
Only two days left.
