I'm trying to get hold of the lyrics to a song the refrain of which goes something like 'and the cares of tomorrow must wait until this day is done.' I believe it has been recorded by the Fureys. Can anyone help?

Here it is:

Come By the Hills
words: Tom Smith
music: "Buaschaill on Eirne"

Come by the hills, to a land where fancy is free,
And stand where the hills meet the sky and the lochs greet the sea,
Where the heather is fair, and the bracken is gold in the sun,
And the cares of tomorrow must wait till this day is done.

Come by the hills, to a land where life is a song,
And sing, while the birds fill the air with their joy all day long;
Where the trees sway in time, and even the wind sings in tune,
And the cares of tomorrow must wait until this day is done.

Come by the hills, to a land where legends remain,
Where stories of old fill the heart, and may yet come again;
Where the past has been lost, but the future is still to be won,
And the cares of tomorrow must wait until this day is done.^^^

I have always thought that this song must have been written for a new movie. Don't know why. The tune is so lovely I like to sing the first verse as a chorus in between the others to prolong the enjoyment.

yes, but it's very difficult to find if you do not know the title. [cares of tomorrow] brings upon no hit for the spelling in the DT is "to-morrow".
