For Tomorrow (Acoustic Version)

1. He's a twentieth century boy
With his hands on the rails
Trying not to be sick again
And holding on for tomorrow.

London ice cracks on a seamless line
He's hanging on for dear life
And so we hold each other tightly
And hold on for tomorrow.

[Chorus:]
Singing
La, la la la. La, la la, la la la la la
La, la la la. La, la la, la la la la la
La, la la la. La, la la, la la la la la
Holding on for tomorrow.

2. She's a twentieth century girl
With her hands on the wheel
Trying not to be sick again
Seeing what she can borrow.

London's so nice back in your seamless rhymes
But we're lost on the Westway
So we hold each other tightly
And we can wait until tomorrow.

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
We're trying not to be sick again
And holding on for tomorrow.

She's a twentieth century girl
Holding on for dear life
And so we hold each other tightly
And hold on for tomorrow.

[Chorus]

[Coda:]
(Jim stops and get out of the car, goes to a house in Emperor's Gate
Through the door and to his room and then he puts the TV on
Turns it off and makes some tea, says Modern Life is Rubbish)
I'm holding on for tomorrow.

(Then Susan comes into the room, she's a naughty girl with a lovely smile
Says let's take a drive to Primrose Hill, it's windy there, and the view's so nice
London ice can freeze you toes, like anyone, I suppose)
You're holding on for tomorrow.
