Tomorrow's Dream
Black Sabbath Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Catch the fastest train around nine
Yes, I'm leaving the sorrow and heartaches
Before it takes me away from my mind
Send me love and I may let you see me
Send me hopes I can fit in my head
But if you really want me to answer
I can only let you know when I'm dead
When sadness fills my days
It's time to turn away
And let tomorrow's dreams
Become reality to me
So realize I'm much better without you
You're not the one and only thing in my heart
I'll just go back to pretending I'm living
So this time I'm gonna have the star part
The song Tomorrow's Dream by Black Sabbath talks about leaving behind the sorrow and heartaches that have been bogging down the singer's mind, and heading towards a new beginning with a positive outlook.

Line by Line Meaning
Well I'm leaving tomorrow at daybreak
I'm departing early in the morning
Catch the fastest train around nine
Catch the fastest train at 9 am
Yes I'm leaving the sorrow and heartaches
I'm leaving behind sadness and pain
Before it takes me away from my mind
Before it consumes my sanity
Send me love and I may let you see me
Show me love and I might allow you to find me
Send me hopes that can spin in my head
Give me aspirations to ponder over
But if you really want me to answer
If you really need a response from me
I can only let you know when I'm dead
I can only reveal it to you when I've passed away
When sadness fills my days
When gloominess engulfs my life
It's time to turn away
It's time to move on
And then tomorrow's dreams
And then the aspirations of the future
Become reality to me
Become factual in my existence
So realize I'm much better without you
Understand that I'm better off without you
You're not the one and only thing in my heart
You're not the only person I care about
I'll just go back to pretending I'm living
I'll just continue pretending to be alive
So this time I'm gonna have to depart
So this time I'll have to leave again
