Song lyrics

Send "Goodbye Sky Harbor" ringtones to your cell

Is tomorrow just a day like all the rest.
How could you know just what you did?
Like all the rest.
How could you know just what you did?
So full of faith yet full of doubt I ask.

Again
I shall ask you this once again.
He said:
"I am but one small instrument."
Do you remember that?

Time and time again you said 
Don't be afraid.
If you believe you can do it.
Don't be afraid.
If you believe you can do it.
The only voice I want to hear is yours.

Again.
I shall ask you this once again.
He said:
"I am but one small instrument."
Do you remember that?

So here I am above palm trees so straight and tall.
You are smaller, gettin smaller.
But I still see you.

27 posts	Jimmy Eats Penis is a ok band, which is good considering I think everything sucks. Sky Harbor is the name of my neighborhood. Coincidence? or part of something bigger?

3 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Actually, this song is based on the book A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving. Many quotes from the song such as "I am but one small instrument" are actually Irving's, or so I hear. I've never actually read it, but I plan to. I hear its excellent, and the amazon reviewers agree.
