A1 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We will always be this way
Flying Angels lifting high
To reach the sun where I belong
Girl you know you were the one
Above the clouds I see you cry
And we will be together once again
Although I'm gone remember me
Please be strong I'll never leave
Just hold on to the memories
Cause while I'm here all I'm thinking about is
Tomorrow
I've always known the love you've shone
Means you'll never be alone (alone)
There'll be times you wonder why
Seeing you with someone new
Used to makes me feel so blue
But now I'm with you all the time
Oh cause you know that when you smile you stop the rain (you stop the rain)
And we will be together once again
Although I'm gone remember me
Please be strong I'll never leave
Just hold on to the memories
Cause while I'm here
All I'm thinking about is
Tomorrow
From the moment that I looked into your eyes
All of my life I thought I'd be there by your side (by your side)
I wish I'd took the time to find the words to say (to say)
You know that when you smile you stop the rain (you stop the rain) yeah
And we will together once again
Although I'm gone remember me
Please be strong I'll never leave
Just hold on to the memories
Cause while I'm here
All I'm thinking about is
Tomorrow
Cause while I'm here
All I'm thinking about is
Tomorrow
The song "Tomorrow" by A1 is a sentimental ballad that addresses loss and grief. The artist speaks to a former love interest who has passed away, assuring her that he will never forget her and that she will always remain close to his heart. The lyrics describe how the couple used to dream of a future together, with 'flying angels lifting high', and that they believed they would always be together in life. The artist also acknowledges how difficult it is to move on after losing someone they loved so much, but that they have to keep going and cherish the memories they created together.
The chorus of the song is particularly impactful: "Although I'm gone remember me, please be strong I'll never leave, just hold on to the memories, cause while I'm here all I'm thinking about is tomorrow." These words express the idea that even though the person is no longer physically present, they will always be remembered and cherished by those who loved them. Although they may be gone, their memory will be carried on forever.
The song "Tomorrow" was released in 2000 as a single from A1's debut album "Here We Come." The track was written by the group's members along with English songwriter Ben Adams. It became a chart-topping hit in the UK and Norway, peaking at number two and number one, respectively. The song's music video was directed by Nigel Dick, who had previously worked on iconic music videos such as "Baby One More Time" by Britney Spears and "Champagne Supernova" by Oasis.

You used to say that everyday

You were always the love of my life
Above the clouds I see you cry

Seeing you with someone new

It used to hurt me to think of anyone else having your love
But now I'm with you all the time
Now that we're together, nothing can break us apart
From the moment that I looked into your eyes
From the very first time I saw you, I knew we were meant to be
All of my life I thought I'd be there by your side (by your side)
I always imagined spending my life with you
I wish I'd took the time to find the words to say (to say)
I wish I had expressed my love for you more often and more openly
Cause while I'm here all I'm thinking about is Tomorrow
I'm focused on our future and all the possibilities that lie ahead
