Tomorrow Girl

Will you ever come out

Come out and play

What’s this life all about

We're only waiting to see how it all plays out someday

Are you there, a passerby on the street

Hidden from the future, guarded by fate

Do circumstances keep you from seeing all the people you meet

Is your future waiting on the wrong side of the gate

Have you already come and crossed paths with your tomorrow

Brushing up against your future joy

We're you too afraid of feeling more sorrow

Never realizing what you risked being so coy

Open your eyes and see what you might find

Something new and wonderful awaits

Or maybe open up to someone that was kind

And realize that they were put there by the mystical fates

Live and laugh all the way to the end

Don’t do it with closed eyes or alone

Someone out there wants to be with you going around life’s bend

There’s a heart out there that you can call home

Forever comes with no guarantees

Tomorrow is there, on you it awaits

Brave those rocky waters, ride the stormy seas

Something incredible is there, but for thee who never hesitates

Open your eyes and be in the moment

Don’t miss your chance to smile

After too much waiting and out the door, your chance went

The chance you’ve wanted for a while

Did you let your home walk out the door

Or did you hold onto it tightly

Do you wish to feel that place once more

Would you cherish it nightly

Choose wisely today, when picking that tomorrow girl

For her ghost will forever haunt your dreams

Tell her that she’s your world

Before the door closes and you're forever suffering lonely extremes

Treat that tomorrow girl like tomorrow is today

Don’t make that horrible mistake

Be wise enough to see in her the magic of her way

For failure when it comes to her, it dooms you to a horrible fate

Hold on to tomorrow, don't let it slip away
