Tomorrow (Acoustic)

(album: Phoenix - 2015)

We can't wait for tomorrow
When there's no light left to follow
I'll be the light that guides you home

Johnny was a good boy
Used to be a dreamer
Hit a bad streak
Left home sick and deep burn
Now his mom is great
And he had thought he didn't need her
Only advice he ever took was the voices on his speakers

Now he's solo
Got no one to lean on
Staring at the photos
They keep telling him to be strong
Now it's all on him to make it right
But all he's wondering is where he's going to sleep
And if he'll make it through the night

And if you press rewind
We can take it back one time
You see it's all on us to be the change that we wanna see
We don't have time to waste
So won't you come with me now

We can't wait for tomorrow
When there's no light left to follow
I'll be the light that guides you home
If you're lost in the shadows
And you're losing the battle
I'll be the light that guides you home

Then there is a mother that listened to a preacher
When her son came out you couldn't reach her
If she couldn't change him, she didn't want to know him
She said, "Don't come home till you were grown"

Said when there is a grandma
And never met her grandkids
And she spends each day thinking
What if she never would have judged him
Always should have loved him
Now all she has is memories of him

If she could press rewind
We could take it back one time
You see it's all on us to be the change that we wanna see
We don't have time to waste
So won't you come with me now

We can't wait for tomorrow
When there's no light left to follow
I'll be the light that guides you home
If you're lost in the shadows
And you're losing the battle
I'll be the light that guides you home

Tomorrow
Where are you now
Where are you now
Tomorrow
Where are you now
Where are you now
