about

A downtempo dance track, it features bass-driven synths, overlapping melodies, and layers of vocal harmonies that lend themselves to an ambient connection to the song’s emotional theme.

While many artists default to the cliche of love songs, Raindust wrote “If Tomorrow Never Comes” with the perspective of a father who, through divorce, loses his children. He struggles with grief, and the realization that his time with them had been taken for granted. He had been consumed with himself and his negative self-image, resulting in a deficiency of mental space for others — including his own kids.

lyrics

Growing up so fast
You’ve gotta slow it down
So much change has happened
Since I last had been around
And in a few months I
Will soon be coming home
Ready to see your faces
And not through a camera phone

But we will never know
When a day will be our last
Don’t give yourself a reason
To regret and fear the past

If tomorrow never comes
Made mistakes but I’ve
Loved you all my life
My little ones
I’m not father of the year
But I am always here

Seemed not long ago
That you had just been born
Maybe I would had noticed
Had I not been so forlorn
But now my eyes are clear
And that time now has passed
I’ll always put you first and
Never again will be so crass

But we will never know
When a day will be our last
Don’t give yourself a reason
To regret and fear the past

If tomorrow never comes
Made mistakes but I’ve
Loved you all my life
My little ones
I’m not father of the year
But I am always here
I promise my daughter and son
That you are number one

It all comes so quickly
What if I don’t get to say
That I love you both so dearly
So if

If tomorrow never comes
Made mistakes but I’ve
Loved you all my life
(I’ve loved you all my life)
My little ones
I’m not father of the year
(Not father of the year)
But I am always here
(I am always here)
