Baby Tomorrow
Ghostly Kisses Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have to remember
What it all means
I need to see
How it could be

But baby tomorrow
I'll be good enough to let you go
Causing damages or not
It is only for the night
It will always be this one time
Where you could play along with me
Until I realise
It is only for this one night

More I deny
It's all so real
I don't want you to know
What defines my being

I don't want you to know
What defines my being

Causing damages or not
It is only for the night
It will always be this one time
Where you could play along with me
Until I realise
It is only for this one night

Causing damages or not
It is only for the night
It will always be this one time
Where you could play along with me




Until I realise
It is only for this one night

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ghostly Kisses's song Baby Tomorrow delve into the themes of self-discovery, acceptance and transience. The singer emphasizes the need to remember and understand what certain experiences mean to her, and this requires her to be with someone and see how things could be. However, the singer realizes that this person is not good for her and she needs to let them go, even though it will take time for her to be good enough to do so. The singer acknowledges that the relationship may cause damage, but she is willing to play along for this one night and accept the transient nature of the situation until she realizes that it is only for this one night.


In the second verse, the singer admits that the situation is complicated and her denial of the truth makes it all too real. She doesn't want this person to know what defines her, which suggests that she might feel exposed or vulnerable. However, she repeats the chorus, emphasizing the transience of the relationship and her willingness to keep things playful for one night.


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of emotional conflict and confusion, as the singer navigates her feelings and tries to reconcile them with the reality of the situation. The use of repetition in the chorus and the simple yet evocative imagery of causing damage or playing along emphasize the liminal nature of the relationship.
