Jerry Herman — Each Tomorrow Morning

[COUNTESS AURELIA] If your world falls flat on its face today You can erase today Tomorrow morning You'll discover all of your past mistakes Gone when the world awakes Tomorrow morning You will see your life in a different light Crystal and crisp and clear and quite Worth beginning over There's no long lost star that you cannot reach For your perfect day starts each Tomorrow morning You're brave Tomorrow morning You're strong Tomorrow morning You can begin again (spoken) When I first wake up tomorrow morning, it may not seem so promising. When you take your hair out of the drawer and your teeth out of the glass, you're apt to feel a little out of place in the world, especially if you've just been dreaming you're a little girl on a pony searching for strawberries in the woods. But one must face the day, so you put on your jewels, your rings, your brooches, bracelets, earrings, and pearls, and have a good look at yourself. Not in the glass, naturally, it lies, but in the side of the big brass gong that once belonged to the immortal Sarah. Then, Pierre, then you're ready for tomorrow morning (sung) You'll wake up the luckiest man on earth Proud that your little life is worth Going on forever There's no long lost star that you cannot reach For your perfect day starts each Tomorrow morning You're brave Tomorrow morning You're strong Tomorrow morning You can begin again [ENSEMBLE] If the world falls flat on its face today You can erase today Tomorrow morning You'll discover all of your past mistakes Gone when the world awakes Tomorrow morning You will see your life in a different light Crystal and crisp and clear [COUNTESS] And quite worth beginning over [ENSEMBLE] There's no long lost star that you cannot reach For your perfect day starts each Tomorrow morning You're brave Tomorrow morning You're strong Tomorrow morning You can begin again
