[Backstory: Jon Foreman, singer/songwriter for Switchfoot, challenged himself and his fans to each write a song of their own with the title “Tomorrow’s Song.” Here are the results of my last-minute efforts. ^_^ I also only wrote a couple verses and a chorus, so it’s definitely not a full song and it certainly needs polishing… but enough excuses. Here goes.]
Tomorrow’s Song
Verse 1
Teardrops resound in a melody
The haunting accompaniment
Torn from her grief-swollen eyes
The cruel refrain
A chorus of pain
The heartbreaking melody of today
Chorus
Maybe tomorrow’s song will be brighter
Tell me, is the journey ahead any lighter?
Everything’s wrong until hope comes along
A voice unexpected, I’m fighting to sing
To the music of tomorrow’s song
Verse 2
Heroes and saints, help me to hear
The beauty in dissonance, tell me again
Is it heaven or hell
The force that compels me
One lonely soul can’t sing this alone
