Yesterday, Tomorrow and Today

[IVÁN]
I think of love as an infinite river
Timelessly flowing
Endlessly strange
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow
Love is eternal
Though the faces sometimes change

Yesterday is a saffron yellow
The warmth of summer
The smell of apple
The soft guitar in the wedding chapel
That echoes through

Today explodes in a bright magenta
Alive and full like a perfect flower
That holds the seed of the passing hour
Which brings us to

Tomorrow is an ice cream sandwich
Just waiting on a silver tray
I love them all and I love forever
Yesterday, tomorrow, and

Today is here with a fierce conviction
The fiery eyes with a hint of sorrow
I'll think of them when I see tomorrow
And today turns into

Yesterday, I remember fondly
Though things went stale and pale and played-out
The good will linger
The bad will fade-out
When I remember

Tomorrow you may ask me "Why?"
"Well, no one wants to die," I'll say
I love them all and I love forever
Yesterday, tomorrow and today

[IVÁN, spoken]
Paulina…

[PAULINA, spoken]
Iván, I've told you…

[IVÁN]
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah…

[PAULINA, spoken]
We both know this can't happen.

[IVÁN]
Blah blah blah blah blah blah…

[PAULINA, spoken]
So do I, but still, it's not…

[IVÁN]
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah… blah…

[PAULINA, spoken]
What time is the plane?

[He turns back to us and smiles:]

[IVÁN]
The book of love has many pages
My filofax has only three
But give me your home number, darling
I'll call you when a slot is free

And someday soon we will meet discreetly
You'll take my hand and you'll ask me sweetly
"Is love eternal?"
I'll say "Completely!

Yes, today
Yes, tomorrow and
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yesterday!"
