Retta - Tomorrow
Retta - Tomorrow (lyrics)
I reach the mountain top so it's so easy for you to see me
I touch the deepest part of your heart so you don't forget me
I want to wake up in the morning to kiss the rain
But you say
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Oh
I want to listen for your sound to fill my morning
And when I close my eyes, I see you in my dreams.
I want to wake up to those promises you made
But you say
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Oh
Sebi you talk say you go take me to your home
I been dey hope say you and me go dey for better for worse
When I look inside my heart, there's a place I used to wanna be
I wanna stay, but it's sad to see
Tomorrow never comes
Tomorrow never comes
Tomorrow never comes
Oh
You use to be my hero and my pillow when we're home
You do dey say not even mosquito go bite me go
I always thought that I would be your number one till
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Oh
I can't believe you had me ... for such a longest time
Now I dey see say common sense no common anyway
They use to say that love don't cost a thing
That's so untrue cos the cost of losing you is so unbelievable.
Sebi you talk say you go take me to your home
I been dey hope say you and me go dey for better for worse
When I look inside my heart, there's a place I used to wanna be
I wanna stay, but it's sad to see
Tomorrow never comes
Tomorrow never comes
Tomorrow never comes
I reach the morning top so it's so easy for you to see me
I touch the deepest part of your heart so you don't forget me
Tomorrow
I'm looking for what's better than tomorrow
I'm searching for what's better than tomorrow.
When I look inside my heart, there's a place I used to wanna be
I wanna stay, but it's sad to see
Tomorrow never comes
Tomorrow never comes
