Tomorrow Lyrics

A part of me own these grounds but they're no longer mine
I have to find a way home
And you, you were all that I got, you kept me hanging on
I have to make it on my own now
Oh, oh the night is young
And a hollow tooth was all it took

And I, I tied the laces around my wrist
For the last time, meet me at the same place

Oh if tomorrow comes
I wanna waste my love on you like a pearl merchant
I'm ready to learn what it takes to burn
I'm gonna let you show me what it means to breathe fire
(Yeah yeah yeah)

I never knew what I want, I let my body talk
I was in a deep sleep

And I, I tied the laces around my wrist
Oh for the last time, meet me at the same place

Oh if tomorrow comes (tomorrow)
I wanna waste my love on you like a pearl merchant
I'm ready to learn (I'm ready) what it takes to burn
I'm gonna let you show me what it means to breathe fire

I kept on coming back, I couldn't help myself (oh oh oh oh oh)
Soft flashes ahead of me, colour my footsteps blue and milk
Can you really trust it?

If tomorrow comes
I wanna waste my love on you like a pearl merchant
I'm ready to learn (I'm ready) what it takes to burn
I'm gonna let you show me what it means to breathe fire

Ooh if tomorrow comes, tomorrow comes
I wanna waste my love on you like a pearl merchant
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready to learn

Cover art for Tomorrow lyrics by Niki & The Dove

The pearl merchant refers to a parable Jesus told his disciples about a pearl merchant who sold everything he owned to obtain the pearl of great price. In that story, Jesus means that his followers should stake everything on the worth of God's kingdom. In Niki's religion, she will stake everything on her lover.
