Jim Croce – Tomorrow’s Gonna Be A Brighter Day

Well, I’m sorry for the things that I told you

But words only go so far

And if I had my way

I would reach into heaven

And I’d pull down a star for a present

And I’d make you a chain out of diamonds

And pearls from a summer sea

But all I can give you is a kiss in the morning

And a sweet apology

Well, I know that it hasn’t been easy

And I haven’t always been around

To say the right words

Or to hold you in the mornin’

Or to help you when you’re down

I know I never showed you much of a good time

But baby things are gonna change

I’m gonna make up for all of the hurt I brought

I’m gonna love away all your pain

Chorus:

And tomorrow’s gonna be a brighter day

There’s gonna be some changes

Tomorrow’s gonna be a brighter day

This time you can believe me

No more cryin’ in your lonely room

And no more empty nights

‘Cause tomorrow mornin’ everything will turn out right

Well, there’s something that I’ve got to tell you

Yes I’ve got something on my mind

But words come hard

When your lying in my arms

And when I’m looking deep into your eyes

But there’s truth and consolation

And what I’m trying to say

Is that nobody ever had a rainbow baby

Until he had the rain

Chorus

It’s gonna, it’s gonna, it’s gonna be a brighter day

It’s gonna, it’s gonna, it’s gonna be a brighter day

It’s gonna, it’s gonna, it’s gonna be a brighter day

It’s gonna be, it’s gonna be, it’s gonna be a brighter day

It’s gonna be, it’s gonna be, it’s gonna be a brighter day

Come on tomorrow

Come on tomorrow

It’s gonna be a brighter day
