Peter Gabriel - Make Tomorrow Lyrics






Put on the dress in which you were married
Pull down the veil til your eyes are hid
Can you remember where we both came from
Let us do as we did

Look at tomorrow today
Making tomorrow today
Making tomorrow today
Making tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today

Put back the photo under your window
Put down the phone that you hold in your hand
Put away these things that stand in between us
Let us be what we can
When it seems
Hopeless
When it seems
Hopeless

Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow today

What better measure of what you were doing here
Then what you can leave behind
All the children of your children's children
Do you ever think what they're going to find
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Where the sacred meet the scared
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow
Where the dreamer's dream is dared

In each of us
A dream can burn like the sun
Let's try it all one more time
To get this lesson learned

Sitting up in a spaceship
Looking down at the earth
You wonder what they all struggling for
What's it all really worth
Making tomorrow today
Making tomorrow today
Make tomorrow
Make tomorrow

    I have loved Peter Gabriel since I was 11 years old. I am now 45. I actually find him difficult to listen to because his music is always such a deeply emotive experience for me. He honestly takes me away and it's so powerful it hurts sometimes. He is absolutely my favourite musician of all time. *LOVE* HIM SO MUCH.

  5. F.... D....

    Love Alison Goldfrapp😍😭

  6. R.... A....

    Peter Gabriel the human being, two great matchless vocalist here( Gabriel and Richie Havens) wrestling each other =and both winning the great admiration, can you ever get enough of it?

    Few songs move and inspire me the way this one does.

    I've been a huge PG fan since 1993 when I bought "Us" on cassette, and I was excited to hear "Ovo" when it came out. So I bought it on or near (I can't remember) its date of release in 2000, and was pretty disappointed with it - several good tracks, but a lot of so-so stuff in between. My opinion hasn't really changed over the years, but the one track that captivated me on day one in 2000 still does 18 years later and unquestionably will continue to do so for the rest of my life. Make Tomorrow is for me the greatest piece of music Gabriel has ever made, and I doubt he'll better it now.

    It's a simple message but a powerful and important one: make your life happen, because no one else will, and you don't have forever. What a contrast this song has, of sad but hopeful. I've listened to it year in, year out, and it has helped me, in the small way that favourite pieces of music can, through some difficult times. It's helped me come down off vertiginous highs and reassured me when I've been worried. It's always there should I wish to switch off the lights and lose myself in it.

    Also, BT is a musical genius and he adds another dimension to this song. I wish he and PG could have collaborated on some more projects. And this video is the perfect visual accompaniment to it - bravo to its creator.

  17. S.... W....

    Forever on....

  18. T.... S....

  27. r.... ....

    tuve a OVO en casete ,lo extraño

  28. B.... �....

    The beginning instruments remind me a lot of the work of Sigur Rós.

    B.... �....

    The song does have a bit of a post-rock vibe.

  29. G.... B....

    Awesome visuals compliment this awesome song!

  30. E.... ....

    Dear God. PETER & RICHIE....HEAVEN. I actually only just bought this album a few months ago despite being a giant fan of both of these icons ( and lovely souls)

  31. S.... B....

    tojight is alright

  32. K.... D....

    Every thing this guy does is outstanding, simple as.

    K.... D....

    Exactly!

  33. g.... f....

    Peter and his family went to nasatwo years a go why how cares about outer space people are going hungry in almost every country.

  34. M.... ....

    Anyone else getting a "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" vibe from 4:40?

    M.... ....

    MyNameIsBucket no. Not particularly.

  35. J.... S....

    Tomorrow Today

  36. N.... C....

    Arcangelo!

  37. I.... C....

    is that severa nazherkhan singing on this ?

  38. M.... M....

    Forget the vocals and the meaning, musically and lengthwise it's kind of a new type of prog, "mature prog" 

  39. G.... W....

    Perfect Video to Lyrics. I make a DEEP Bow!

  40. P.... S....

    Smutek, nadzieja, refleksja, wspomnienie. I wulkan energii. Jest tu wszystko. To jeden z najlepszych utworów Petera. Kosmiczny -dosłownie- kawałek. Ktoś tu pisał, że to arcydzieło. I to prawda. Minęło już tyle lat od OVO, a ja wciąż do niego wracam.

  41. E.... B....

    one of Gabriel's very best, the collection of vocalists on this song just makes all the malinky hairs on my plott stand endwise...pure genius.

  42. c.... ....

    beautiful pictures! where'd you get them?

  43. A.... ....

    Yes! something is missing. It does not sound like Peter Gabriel in the early vocals. And who is the female singer, pls anyone? 

    A.... ....

    Female singer is Elizabeth Fraser. She was in a great band called The Cocteau Twins, and is responsible for the vocal on Massive Attack's "Teardrop".

  44. R.... S....

    His songs are a piece of art that if it culd be gallerized would be timeless.

  45. R.... S....

    Peter Gabriel has been an inspiration in my life. Through his works I have been able to paint, sing, draw, and create my own world. While I was in Dallas I sang in church choir and played piano/electric piano and created quite a few really awesome songs and its thanks to him that I almost made it into recording. If I had the time and a wide arrange of sounds I could put a whole video together.

  46. A.... M....

    Because of Peters lyrics, poets and passionate writers everywhere have something genuine to latch onto. Every one of his works of art are reminiscent of some distant part of my life.
    "Sitting up in a spaceship... looking down at the earth...you wonder, what they are all struggling for, whats it all really worth..." -PG

    “Benedicto: May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. May your rivers flow without end, meandering through pastoral valleys... excerpt from Benedicto by Edward Abbey

  48. M.... W....

    RIP Richie Havens.

  49. B.... ....

    Great work!

  50. M.... ....

    Es el disco OVO año 2000

  51. A.... G....

    Thanks!

  52. p.... l....

    Elisabeth Fraser, Paul Buchanan and Richie Havens.

    p.... l....

    The unmistakeable voice of Paul Buchanan "Blue Nile". Gabriel the maestro conducts, produces another masterpiece. Like this? Check out Steven Wilson "Porcupine Tree" artist, vocalist A+.

  53. L.... B....

    me podrían decir de qué año es esta grabación? Peter un genio absoluto!

  54. M.... W....

    Peter you have always known a part of me.....thank you

  55. A.... G....

    Tell me, who helps Peter singing a his song

  56. D.... ....

    Peter has so much talent. His music is so powerful. Listening to this song I have the same feeling like I was flying in the sky. I can't just applause ... I thank You Peter.

  57. F.... P....

    I was at the Millenium Dome as a kid =) This may have been the first good song i'd ever heard!

  58. p.... ....

    Mass effect 3 credit music sounds suspiciously like this song...and seeing as you saved the galaxy, the lyrics kinda fit too...bioware be stealin?

  59. L.... P....

    My favourite track from OVO - a masterpiece. Odd though that the show (written for the Millennium) tells the story of the blowing up of a tower, that kills a lot of people. Then a year later...

  60. L.... C....

    4 of my favourite vocalists all on one track.

  61. c.... ....

    Great PG, Great Song, Great Video! Many compliments!

  62. J.... F....

    Just plain brilliant!Like drowning in pudding but without the sugar.

  63. M.... A....

    More music like this, please!

  64. M.... ....

    This song belongs in the album Ovo, which is was very experimental at the time. It had nothing to do with the kind of music Gabriel was doing. but, have no doubt, it's Peter Gabriel. In fact he sings, but in the end, like saying 'here i am bitches'

  65. u.... ....

    wonderful music , wonderful music, thx a lot for this buddy

  66. g.... ....

    by the way the singer is paul buchanan of the blue nile in this peter gabriel project!!
    great song!

  67. J.... J....

    am I missing something? This doesn't sound like Peter Gabriel's voice.

    J.... J....

    PG only sings the final verse. The preceding verses are all sung by guest vocalists (Paul Buchanan, Richie Havens, Elizabeth Fraser) who also performed on other tracks on the "Ovo" album.

    Although there is apparently a version wholly sung by Peter. I only became aware of this about one minute ago when I noticed it on the right hand side of my PC screen, so I'm away to listen to it now... :-D

  68. s.... ....

    So Great.....

  69. d.... ....

    Beautiful!! d.

  70. J.... A....

    good job on this video! so creative.

  71. E.... K....

    Simply Splendid, Merci.

  72. S.... ....

    this vid is beautiful!

  73. l.... ....

    I think all OVO album is one piece of art

  74. m.... ....

    great video... great song!
    as PG fan you should know that there's a full PG version on the net...

    m.... ....

    https://youtu.be/ESzkSNVhrik

  75. p.... ....

    The best tune! I would also love a full Peter version!! Although Richie Havens is a legend also!!!

  76. V.... W....

    chyba musze się przebadać - coś mi sie dzieje z sercem jak tego słucham, jak słucham P.G
    uwielbiam

  77. m.... ....

    Beautiful. . .both the song and the video! : )

  78. b.... ....
