Oh you tell me that you love me 
Yes you tell me that you care
That tomorrow we'll be married 
But tomorrow's never there
Many weeks have I waited 
Many many long nights have I cried
Just to see that happy morning happy morning 
When I'd have you right by my side
But tomorrow it never never comes 
No no no tomorrow ain't never ever gonna come
Now you tell me you tell me you love me
Can you say that you want me
But tomorrow never comes
