By This Time Tomorrow Where Will You Be?

By this time tomorrow, where will you be?

In which numbered town will your feet have led you?

And if you find yourself in tears,

Wipe them gently, and carry on.

Beyond this road,

May you grasp the countless futures

And as you keep walking on,

Know I’ll be cheering you from afar.

That place you dreamed of, again and again—

If a future lies just past it,

Then to you who chooses a brand new path,

I wish that path brings joy to your heart.

Beyond this road,

May you grasp the countless futures

And as you keep walking on,

Know I’ll be cheering you from afar.

When the seasons pass

And you look back someday,

Please, even just sometimes,

Remember me.

To the one I hold dear—

[Bridge]

Let me be the light

That gently shines upon you.

If ever the day should come

When you seek that flame,

Then I will be there,

To take your hand and guide you home.
