Tomorrow
By Muriel Palanca
Everything that’s good in me is everything that’s you.
You’re the guy who’s in my heart, who I compare all others to.
Whenever I’m with someone else, your face is what goes through my head.
And though I try to think of them, deep down I wish it was you instead.
My armor slowly crumbles down and there’s no place I can escape.
Unraveling, you keep me strong and yet unstable in your gaze.
I’m balancing upon the edge. The ground beneath seems far away.
And if I jumped, I wonder if you’d fall for me and save the day.
You know my ways and reckless deeds. Your name is written upon my tears.
And on my lips, the words just die, a secret that I have learned to fear.
I am ashamed of who I am and the person that I have become,
But you bring out the best in me when my faith is close to none.
I’ve made mistakes I can’t forgive and yet there’s one I still regret.
I wish I could go back in time, back to that day when we first met.
If I had made a different choice, then my life may have been better.
Maybe I’d feel happiness if you and I were still together.
The truth is that the past is gone, a time of waste and sorrow.
It can’t be changed or meddled with, but I’ll still have hope tomorrow.
So seize the day and take a risk. For you I’ll give everything I’ve got.
Don’t let this moment pass you by. Take a chance and give us one more shot.
