Somebody said “Tomorrow never brings nothing new”
Wasn’t that someone you?
Who are you now?
Don’t I remember someone standing outside the door
Wasn’t that you before?
Who are you now?

Who were you then?
Who might’ve been forever you?
Wasn’t it strange feeling a change come over you?

Who will you be tomorrow?
Nobody that you’ve been
Watching yourself begin over again
Who are you now?
And who will you turn to then?

Who were you then?
Who might’ve been forever you?
Wasn’t it strange feeling a change come over you?

Who will you be tomorrow?
Nobody that you’ve been
Watching yourself begin over again
Who are you now?
And who will you turn to then?
