As the title suggests, this song is about sleeping on a problem, and discovering
that it never seems as bad the next day. As for the problem in the song, I'm not totally sure myself! lol
(if you find it let me know) :D

Tomorrow

A darker world
Day after day
To my eyes
Your face
Seems to fade away

A colder world
Night after night
To my pain
Inside
There's no end in sight

But tomorrow brings a new beginning
Tomorrow chases my fears away
Tomorrow comes with a smile, singing
I'll bring you hope for another day

A brighter world
From moon to sunlight
To my eyes
Your face
Is now clear again

A warmer world
From spring to summer
To my skin
The heat
Is a welcome change

‘Cos tomorrow brings a new beginning
Tomorrow chases my fears away
Tomorrow comes with a smile, singing
I'll bring you hope for another day

Oh, today has brought me a new beginning
Today has taught me not to be afraid
Today I laughed, and smiled, singing
I've got hope for another day

I've got hope for another day
I've got hope for another………..day

Hi Pete,
Nicely balanced song here well done. The one thing about it that does come to mind id verse 2:
A colder world
Night after night
To my pain
Inside
There's an end in sight
In the last line, you talk of and end in sight, I would have thought that at this point there would seem to be NO end in sight hence the despair. So maybe
A colder world
Night after night
To my pain
Inside
There's no end in sight

Just my thoughts,

Cheers
Paul

Nice song Pete

I agree with Pbee ( he has made some very interesting points )

Hilch

Here is to you as good as you are
And here is to me as bad as I am
As good as you are and as bad as I am
I'm as good as you are as bad as I am

cheers guys, i see your point pbee, gonna change it now, and maybe add a slight change to the chorus as well, just to make it flow a little better.....

I was going to make the same point as Pbee.....but you changed it!

I really can't find anything to criticise....well structured, flows well, reads well....got any music in mind? Strikes me as slow and moody to begin with, lots of minor chords...then becoming more up-beat later in the song.....

:D :D :D

I don't know what the chords are called (if they are 'chords') but for the verses I was going with

-"1"---"2"--(names for illustration below)

--0-----0--
--2-----0--
--2-----2--
--0-----2--
--x-----0--
--x-----x--

in a pattern like this;

1
A darker world
Day after day
---------2
To my eyes
Your face
Seems to fade away

with C>F>G>F for the chorus line by line;

-----C-----------------------F----G--F
But tomorrow brings a new beginning > "new begining" being REALLY stretched out
----C--------------------F-------G
Tomorrow chases my fears away
----C--------------------------F-----G--F
Tomorrow comes with a smile, singing
C -------------------F------------------G
------I'll bring you hope for another day

I know this isnt really very clear, is sounds good though trust me! lol

If I can record it I will, trying to get some decent equipment together to do so, but a bit low on £££ at present!

Cheers Bushpig, my theory is terrible as well! Seems strange to know chords but not chord names.... lol

Still, if it works, so be it I say!

First chord would be Aadd11, second would be Asus2 - although technically there isn't a sus2 chord, it's an inversion of Esus4.....it's easier to think of it as Asus2 though, especially as you'd normally play Esus4 as

E A D G B E
