With its beautiful piano melodies and vocals imbued with raw vulnerability and emotional depth, the track builds and rises to new heights as he elegantly weaves together themes of uncertainty, love, and hope. Tom acknowledges the uncertain nature of the future, longing for a desire to escape from limitations and find a new sense of freedom.
Speaking ahead of its arrival, Tom reveals that, “‘Tomorrow’ is a special song for me. It was inspired by several things… personally, for me, it’s about my health! The hope things will get better.”
