Tomorrow - Tevin Campbell

I hope tomorrow will bring
A better you, better me
U know that we'll show this world
We got more that we could be
So u should never give up
On your hopes and your dreams
U better get up get up get in2 it
Get it on
To be strong

If we try, we can fly to a whole 'nother place
All we need is belief and a smile on our face
We can go anywhere we want, any road we decide to take
And we're never, never, never too far from tomorrow today

If tomorrow is light in a place where there's none
Then know that now is the time to have faith in us all
Ya know we're all in this world and we all can belong
We gotta get up, get out, get over it, get it on to be strong


If we try, we can fly to a place in the sun
All we need is precious dreams and a friend we can trust
We can go anywhere we want, any road that we can take
And we're never too far from tomorrow today


Ev'rybody say tomorrow is just for us to share
And we're gonna send our message of love out ev'rywhere
There's a promise of love tomorrow has
Something special and it's something we know will last and last

'cause we're never far away, never
One thing i can always be sure of
Far away, no never the promise of today


Tevin, u sing that song boy touched

I always loved the Brothers Johnson's original...I dunno, I think I would've liked Tevin's re-make more if they hadn't put that "kiddie choir" on there...

I love the Brothers Johnson and prefer their instrumental version, but Tevin's is good as well. The lyrics are so damn corny, but it still works.

lol Yup!! lol ....I mean, damn!! obviously he can play some rhythm guitar, but on how come when it came time for a solo, Quincy would always bring in Lee Ritenour or Steve Lukather or Alex Weir, or anybody but George lol ?

Oh shutup.


I love this song.....his voice is almost as good as Michael Jackosns.....I love the kiddies chorus too. SOrta reminds me of seseme street. Thats a good thing by the way biggrin


Iam a big fan of tevvy tev. Got all his albums. Babyface wrote some of his very best songs for tevin. "i'm ready" is still a fantastic album, as is the more dated sounding "t.e.v.i.n".....Al b sure hooked tevin up with some good tracks. Like "just ask me too" and "confused" (i think that was al b?) I love "confused", I could really relate to that song as a kid.

"perfect world" makes me wanna be a kid again.....Michaels voice does that too.....both these boys could sing there asses off.

Shame his later 2 albums were patchy. "back to the world" is a great, if of course corny song. As is "could it be" and off his last, the wonderful "dandelion" is superb.....

Plus he did that goofy movie song that I love. The pop perect "I2I" with Rosie Gaines.....

Ah tevin I miss u.....

Remember when Tevin was the star and Usher was still rising?

tevin should of been worldwide.....very unfair!

"halls of desire" is a great Prince track too.

"always in my heart" is a song that I keep hearing at the moment.....great song!

Tevin = not marketable
Usher = very marketable

Plus now there is that Mario fella so where is Tevin supposed 2 fit in if he attempts 2 make a comeback?
