Our Lady Peace

Tomorrow Never Knows

Recorded in a day and a half in early 1996 for The Craft soundtrack.

We didn't have a whole lot of time to work on it. Being honest, I think we fell a little short of the song.

The producer who was up here (Ralph Sall), he's quite close to the director (Andrew Fleming), and their whole vision was to have something really psychedelic. They wanted it a lot further away from what we heard in our heads. So we compromised. The track in the theatres is a mix that Ralph did. Then I went to L.A. with another man, David Holman, who's done some of the Bush tracks, to have him mix it more in our vein (for the album). We wanted something truer to what we are.- Raine Maida, Performance, May 1996

Lyrics

Listen to the color of your dreams

Turn off your mind, relax, float downstream
It is not dying, it is not dying
Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void
And it is shining, it is shining
Now you may see the meaning of within
It is being, it is being
Love is all and love is everyone
And it is knowing, and it is knowing
That ignorance and hate may mourn the dead
It is believing, it is believing
Oh play the game, existence to the end
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, beginning

Turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream
It is not dying, it is not dying
Play the game, existence to the end
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning

Lay down all thought, surrender to the void
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the begin, begin, beginning
