("When Tomorrow Comes" by Eurythmics)

♪ Underneath your dreamlit eyes ♪

♪ Shades of sleep have driven you away ♪

♪ The moon is pale outside ♪

♪ And you are far from here ♪

♪ Breathing shifts your careless head ♪

♪ Untroubled by the chaos of our lives ♪

♪ Another day, another night ♪

♪ Has taken you again my dear. ♪

♪ And you know that I'm gonna be the one ♪

♪ Who'll be there ♪

♪ When you need someone to depend upon ♪

♪ When tomorrow comes ♪

♪ Wait till tomorrow comes, yeah yeah ♪

♪ When tomorrow comes ♪

♪ Wait till tomorrow comes, yeah yeah ♪

♪ When tomorrow comes ♪

♪ Wait till tomorrow comes, yeah yeah ♪

♪ When tomorrow comes ♪

♪ Wait till tomorrow comes, yeah yeah ♪

♪ Last night while you were lying in my arms ♪

♪ And I was wondering where you were ♪

♪ You know you looked just like a baby ♪

♪ Fast asleep in this dangerous world ♪

♪ Every star was shining brightly ♪

♪ Just like a million years before ♪

♪ And we were feeling very small ♪

♪ Underneath the universe ♪

♪ And you know that I'm gonna be the one ♪

♪ Who'll be there ♪

♪ When you need someone to depend upon ♪

♪ When tomorrow comes ♪

♪ Wait till tomorrow comes, yeah yeah ♪

♪ When tomorrow comes ♪

♪ Wait till tomorrow comes, yeah yeah ♪

♪ When tomorrow comes ♪

♪ Wait till tomorrow comes, yeah yeah ♪

♪ When tomorrow comes ♪

♪ Wait till tomorrow comes, yeah yeah ♪

- Ha!

♪ Whoo-whoo, yeah ♪

♪ And you know that I'm gonna be the one ♪

♪ Who'll be there ♪

♪ When you need someone to depend upon ♪
