Tomorrow
Hope Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1:
I feel a little foolish
Like I'm wasting all this time
Cause I'm looking for a moment
Just to say what's on my mind

I hate to say I'm hurting
Cause I'm not one to complain
But I get a little nervous
And I don't know what to say

Chorus 1:
But maybe I'll wake up tomorrow
Close all the windows and finally step out of the door
And I'll write a new song
I'll get to tell them the things that I couldn't before
And I won't be scared anymore

Verse 2:
I don't think that I'm hopeless
But I'd be lying to myself
Cause I know how much I need it
But I keep it on the shelf

Chorus 2:
But maybe I'll wake up tomorrow
Close all the windows and finally step out of the door
And I'll write a new song
I'll get to tell them the things that I couldn't before
But I don't know how
I'll find a way cause I think it's getting pretty late
So maybe some day I'll see it through
But for now that all might have to wait
Til I wake up tomorrow

Chorus 3:
maybe I'll wake up tomorrow
Close all the windows and finally step out of the door
And I'll write a new song
I'll get to tell them the things that I couldn't before
But I don't know how
I'll find a way cause I think it's getting pretty late




So maybe some day I'll see it through
But for now that all might have to wait
