David Bowie - Here Today, Gone Tomorrow Lyrics






You're like a sailor with a girl on every shore
Stay with them now for they won't see you no more
Like a gypsy forever on the run
Stay for a while, while you look for a whore

Like that sailor leaves, come back again
Stay for a while, and they won't see you again
Like that gypsy caravan forever on the run
You stay for a while, then you pick up and go

That's how you show your love for me
That's how you show your love for me

You're like
Here today, gone tomorrow
Each time you call, you leave a little sorrow
You're like
Here today, gone tomorrow
Each time you call, you leave a little sorrow

You're like that big, big star, he's tore the town apart
Givin' everyone to console their aching heart
Like that snow that fell, looks so wrong and out of place
Stay for a while, then you leave without a trace

That's 'xactly like that star, he tore the town apart
Leave everyone to console their aching heart
Like that snow that fell, looks so wrong and out of place
Stay for a while, leave without a trace

That's how you show your love for me
That's how you show your love for me

Here today, gone tomorrow
Each time you call, you leave a little sorrow
You're like
Here today, gone tomorrow
Each time you stay, you leave a little sorrow

Here today, gone tomorrow

Your like
Here today, gone tomorrow
Each time I call, you leave a little sorrow
Here today, gone tomorrow
Each time I call, you leave a little sorrow Yeah
Here today, here today but gone tomorrow
(Thank you)

David Bowie Here Today, Gone Tomorrow Comments
  1. K.... S....

    How do you clean glitter out of your soul well you go back to your roots that's what this guy did. Pin-ups was the first exorcism this just continue that idea a little further. Just pure combining The Rock and the Rhythm

  2. B.... M....

    Very proud to know and to have mixed the great man who wrote this song many times live. He's always had nothing but great things to say about this cover.
    The man I'm refering to is Dutch Robinson formerly of the Ohio Players. Check out the original if you like this version. He's still performing it better than ever in Vancouver!

    My brother, Charlie Karp, died last Monday (3-11). He was introduced to David Bowie while he was working on his 'Black Tie, White Noise' album (Hit Factory, NYC). This contains Mick Ronson's last moments on record (before he died of liver cancer). And then, David, 24 years later, died of liver cancer. I'll give you all one guess of from what my brother died. And to think that my brother was also at Jimi Hendrix's last recording sessions, and performed just after his funeral!

  4. J.... J....

    absolutely his best vocal performance

  5. k.... ....

    I have heard almost everything David ever recorded, and I love this track above all else.

  6. C.... D....

    He did this Ohio Players song justice.

  7. B.... O....

    Coked is all the better for this!

  8. B.... O....

    God I miss the 70s!

  9. A.... ....

    this was out of the original 1974 record, i just discovered 2017 was unreleased back then

  10. T.... G....

    Awww so poignant, now he's gone and we're all heartbroken, love this track, I used to sing this when I got my receding hairline, hair today gone tomorrow, RIP David

  11. P.... M....

    todo es bueno

  12. K.... J....

    Awesome song. Totally needed a studio version.

  13. T.... W....

    jagger does what Keff tells him to do !!

  14. M.... L....

    We all are...thanks David.

  15. B.... F....

    my favorite Bowie tune!

  16. S.... ....

    He did it all so well.

  17. E.... B....

    His voice is so ragged and passionate in this. Love it.

  18. C.... C....

    its so 👍 I wish I wasn't so sad

  19. m.... ....

    Is it Bowie singing? I doubt it...

    m.... ....

    I still can't listen to anything after Station to Station without bursting to tears like a kid. Between 1967 and 1976, it's fine, but after that, nope, not a chance. I have no idea why. It feels like losing a member of my family and I guess we all are in that kind of state of shock. I just hope he knows, somehow, how much he's loved and missed.

    m.... ....

    +Manderley S Same here... I can't even explain why because I am not the groupie kind of music lover... It's different with Bowie though, I'm still trying to come to terms with his "'death"... Maybe it has to do with his everlasting young looks, his elegance, he did not seem to age... he will never be old

    m.... ....

    No doubt!

    m.... ....

    Definitely him...He called 1975 "Plastic Soul"..but he was being modest....he sings as good as Otis or Sam & Dave here..The arrangement is fabulous..He was quite a good band leader y'know !

    m.... ....

    Interesting, the Bowie decides to play The Ohio Players song, he was a listener, soul man

  20. A.... G....

    Extraordinaria y olvidada canción del Duque

  21. k.... ....

    Beautiful song only once but aching in your heart forever

  22. R.... B....

    Finally on YouTube! Love this track!

    R.... B....
