Finally
Kings Of Tomorrow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Time keeps its own time,
Here we stand at beginning,
And then goes passing us by
And I, I, I can'T dream for us all,
I hope I'm in a better state,
When here and now crumbles and falls
I knew you'd come knocking one day,
Unannounced like a thief in the night.
So tell me how do you do
Finally I meet you
You don't know what I've been through,
Waiting and wondering about you
I had a dream my trip would end UP at you,
And now I know paradise.
Where do we go from here,
Time ain't nothing but time,
I now have no fear of my fears
And no more tears to cry,
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow means nothing at all
If we don't hear the line,
When today places its call, and morning, morning,
Morning won't ever be the same,
Now I won't make the same mistakes, time and time again
Time and time again
So tell me how do you do
Finally I meet you
You don't know what I've been through,
Waiting and wondering about you
I had a dream my trip would end up at you,
And now I know paradise.
So tell me how do you do
Finally I meet you
You don't know what I've been through,
Waiting and wondering about you
I had a dream my trip would end up at you,
And now I know paradise.
The lyrics to Kings of Tomorrow's Finally are rich with themes of time, patience, and destiny. The song begins by acknowledging the unstoppable march of time and the fact that we are powerless to stop it. Despite this, the song suggests that there may be a kind of personal timelessness that lies beyond the daily grind of life. This theme is picked up in the next lines which talk about standing at the beginning and watching time pass us by. Here, the listener gets a sense of the fleeting nature of life and the importance of seizing the moment before it is too late.
The chorus is a powerful expression of the song's central message. It is a message about fate, destiny, and the power of perseverance. The singer is hopeful that they will be in a better state when the present moment crumbles and falls. They are also certain that they will meet someone who can make their world collide. It is a statement of pure hope and anticipation, but it is also a reminder of how powerful the present moment can be if we are willing to seize it.
Overall, the song is an optimistic meditation on the many mysteries of life. It suggests that anything is possible if we are willing to keep moving forward and take whatever life throws our way with a grain of salt. It is a message that is timeless and uplifting and speaks to the very heart of what it means to be alive.

Absolutely! Sending you tons of Love from Washington, D.C.!! I'm here for you and everyone reading this post. We have some deep souls right here. We're connected by the Love of Music! I remember when my Brother first dropped this song. My Brother Sam "The Man" Burns knew this was One of my life anthems. He spoke through his music to everybody! He always knew when someone needed to hear Julie sing! Every time he would play this track it was a different life experience. Putting life into perspective and letting go of what no longer serves you. That's the power of MUSIC. I honor my dance floor time. Dancers have been my lifelong lifelines for 20+ years. I'm humbled and honored to listen to it again in 2021. It still pushes me through, Lisa!! Anyone reading this post know that you are so loved and you're never alone. What makes my heartstrings pull even more so my brother Sam passed away two years ago. DC Family is stronger than ever because Sam taught us well. He taught us how to get through even the toughest battles. Life isn't easy and as long as we are together. Friendship and connection. We can heal and recover. The lyrics have a new meaning new life experience. May music continue to feed your heart, body, mind, and soul. I got your back, Lisa. I was meant to find this thread. Yesterday I dealt with losing my Dad. Sam was always there for me. He was the One I call on. It was my Dad's 11th death anniversary yesterday. I'm so used to going to Eighteenth Street Lounge and being with DC Family. Now I am without Sam and my Dad. I miss them so much it hurts. I played this music and it took on a whole new meaning! I feel loved and comforted. I thought about all the good memories. Music always brings me back to the present Moment. Thank goodness for lyrics! I absolute love this song. I just had to deal with a shitty thread from my old hometown earlier today. I remember Finally. I can exhale again. Closed my eyes and listen. This timeless gem will always feed our Souls. For that I am so grateful and thankful. Love me some Defected Records!! Hit me up and let's dance!!! Much LOVE. Thanks for reading!

It's 2024 and we're still listening this masterpiece. One of the best end of set/night end tunes. Great memories!
@calwalker3511
Unbelievable tune!

I met my daughter's father in 1997. We had an amazing night dancing to this, well I say dancing... 😉. Of course she wasn't created, not even a thought, but this brings me right back to the night we met and now we have her. She's 21 now. Memories are wonderful, especially when they're good ones.

Such a beautiful story with this song as the backdrop.💗

The first time I heard this song was in the early 2000s at Pacha in Ibiza during a Subliminal party. Erik Morillo played this track. The atmosphere was hot, a beautiful girl knew the lyrics of the song by heart and sang it while dancing in a sensual way against me. What a night! What memories!
