From the recording No Promises for Tomorrow (EN)
The song is about choosing presence and courage today because the future is not guaranteed. It pits love, doubt, and freedom against the fear of getting it wrong, ending with a deliberate choice to live in “now.”
Lyrics
### Verse 1
I wake before the city puts its colors on
Your message sits like thunder on my tongue
I count my promises like coins inside my palm
But they slip through every crack when I say your name
### Chorus
’Cause there are **no promises for tomorrow**
Only what we dare while our hearts still glow
If we wait for a perfect road to know
We’ll lose today before it learns to show
There are **no promises for tomorrow**
So hold me now like time is borrowed
### Verse 2
I look into your eyes, they’re storm and stillness, too
You say “we’ve got forever,” meaning “if we do”
I learned to save my dreams by keeping them asleep
But tonight I’ll say it all before my courage leaves
### Chorus
’Cause there are **no promises for tomorrow**
Only what we dare while our hearts still glow
If we wait for a perfect road to know
We’ll lose today before it learns to show
here are **no promises for tomorrow**
So hold me now like time is borrowed
### Verse 3
We run through neon streets until the signs turn fire
And every old regret gets smaller than a smile
I feel your fingers mapping out my doubt
And suddenly my fear is just the noise you drown out
### Chorus
’Cause there are **no promises for tomorrow**
Only what we dare while our hearts still glow
If we wait for a perfect road to know
We’ll lose today before it learns to show
There are **no promises for tomorrow**
So hold me now like time is borrowed
### Solo
*(8 bars)* A melodic synth or guitar lead that quotes the chorus hook, then resolves downward into the verse’s minor color.
### Verse 4
When night becomes the morning and we stand at the same door
I won’t keep counting chances like that’s what living’s for
A single “now” can be bigger than a year
And if I lose you tomorrow, I’ll still choose you here
### Bridge
Stop asking if it lasts
Stop measuring our scars
I’d rather be honest
Than safe without the stars
### Final chorus
’Cause there are **no promises for tomorrow**
Only what we dare while our hearts still glow
If we wait for a perfect road to know
We’ll lose today before it learns to show
There are **no promises for tomorrow**
Lift me up as the light turns blue
There are **no promises for tomorrow**
But we’ve got today, and that will do
