Tomorrow
JAMES (live) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How long to go before you hit the ground
You keep on screaming
Don´t you see me here
Am I a ghost to you
Now your grip's too strong
You can't catch love with a net or a gun
Gotta keep faith that your luck will change tomorrow
Tomorrow
Why are you phoning
What am I to do when you're miles away
You're always calling from the darkest moods and we're both scared
Now your grip's too strong
You can't catch love with a net or a gun
Gotta keep faith that your path will change
Gotta keep faith that your love will change
Now your grip's too strong
Can't catch love with a net or a gun
Gotta keep faith that your path will change
Gotta keep faith that your love will change tomorrow
I'm just out of your range
Tomorrow
All your suffering's in vain
Tomorrow
Now your grip's too strong
You can't catch love with a net or a gun
Gotta keep faith that your path will change
Gotta keep faith that your love will change tomorrow
I got out of your range
Tomorrow
All your suffering seems vain
Change tomorrow
Some forgiveness now
Tomorrow
Love's no sacred cow
The lyrics of James' song "Tomorrow" depict a deep sense of empathy and concern towards someone who is struggling and falling apart. The singer sees the person falling and screaming, but they are unable to reach to them, and wonders if they are a ghost to the person. The person keeps on calling the singer from their darkest moods, and it seems like they are both scared. The lyrics suggest that the person is holding on to something too tightly, something that cannot be caught with a net or a gun. The singer encourages the person to have faith in the fact that their path and luck will change tomorrow, implying hope and optimism.
The lyrics continue to convey the message that holding on too tight can be detrimental, as it can prevent someone from catching and experiencing love. The same idea of having faith that things can change is repeated, and this time, the singer encourages the person to have faith that their love will change tomorrow. As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges the distance between the two, stating that he is just out of the person's range, and their suffering seems to be in vain. The singer ends the song with the words "love's no sacred cow," suggesting that love should not be taken for granted.

Seen them 5 times. They're amazing and despite forming in the 1980's they still pack concert halls out.
Stay safe brother in these strange times.
