today tomorrow and yesterday

Do you ever stop and realise tomorrow is today
Now put them both together they were all our yesterdays
What you do tomorrow you will do it all again today?
And all the memories that you kept were all from yesterday

It isn’t really hard to know our future path to take
Because you did it yesterday and then again today
Tomorrow you will try to plan a different thing to do
But oh that’s just so silly when today’s planed out for you

So try not to worry when tomorrow comes
You will have done it yesterday I know this sounds so dumb
Don’t think about tomorrow, as it will never come
It will always be today you know and your worries will have gone

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
