When Tomorrow Comes
Embracing Tomorrow's Farewell: A Melodic Journey of Love and Loss
Lyrics
I, I'm lying oh so quiet by your side
I am lying quietly by your side
Afraid that you will open up your eyes
Fearful that you will open your eyes
Cos when the morning comes you'll say goodbye
Anticipating a goodbye when morning arrives
And now I see a ray of sunlight on your bed
A ray of sunlight is visible on your bed
I try to move the curtain once again
Attempting to move the curtain once again
It doesn't really matter anyway -- I know it
Realizing it doesn't matter, acknowledging it's over
It's all over
Accepting the end
Cos when tomorrow comes, you'll be gone
Tomorrow signifies your departure
Slow down, sunrise
Request to slow down, sunrise
I'm holding on to you all night through
Desire to hold on throughout the night
Until tomorrow comes
Waiting until the arrival of the next day
Hush
A command to hush
Don't let nobody wake my baby
Protecting a sleeping loved one
Hush
Reiteration of the command to hush
Oh, let this moment stay forever just for us
Desiring to prolong this moment for the couple
No, a garbage can is falling in the street
Noting a disturbance in the street
You're crying and you're talking in your sleep
Observing tears and sleep talk
I take your hand and listen to your breath
Comforting by holding hands and listening to breathing
So it won't be long before the night is through
Aware that the night won't last much longer
Then emptiness and loneliness will rule
Recognizing that emptiness and loneliness will follow
And memories are all that's left of you -- I know it
Understanding that memories will be all that remains
It's all over
Acknowledging the end again
Cos when tomorrow comes, you'll be gone
Tomorrow brings departure
Slow down, sunrise
Requesting the sunrise to slow down
I'm holding on to you all night through
Continuing to hold on throughout the night
Until tomorrow comes
Waiting until the next day
Hush
Reiterating the command to hush
Don't let nobody wake my baby
Ensuring nobody disturbs the sleeping baby
Hush
Reiterating the desire for silence
Oh, let this moment stay forever just for us
Longing for this moment to last forever
Hush (hush, hush), hush (hush)
Repeating the command to hush
I whisper in your ear
Whispering in the loved one's ear
Hush (hush, hush), hush (hush)
Repeating the command to hush
Just go back to sleep, baby
Instructing the baby to go back to sleep
Cos when tomorrow comes, you'll be gone
Tomorrow marks the departure
Slow down, sunrise
Requesting the sunrise to slow down
I'm holding on to you all night through
Continuing to hold on throughout the night
Until tomorrow comes
Waiting until the next day
Cos when tomorrow comes, you'll be gone
Tomorrow brings departure
Slow down, sunrise
Requesting the sunrise to slow down
I'm holding on to you all night through
Continuing to hold on throughout the night
Until tomorrow comes
Waiting until the next day
Hush
Reiterating the command to hush
Don't let nobody wake my baby
Ensuring nobody disturbs the sleeping baby
Hush
Reiterating the desire for silence
Oh, let this moment stay forever
Longing for this moment to last forever
Hush
Expressing that forever cannot be enough for them
Forver cannot never be enough for us
Emphasizing the insufficiency of forever for the couple
