"If The World Ends Tomorrow" is a melancholic yet witty acoustic folk ballad blending apocalyptic dread with tender romance and dark humor. A man, facing doomsday headlines, woos his love with ironic urgency: if the world might end, why not seize the night in intimate chaos? Through poetic verses, it contrasts cosmic collapse with personal warmth—burning skies, trembling hands, rooftop toasts—urging reckless love as the ultimate rebellion. Passenger-like storytelling meets Blunt-esque charm in bittersweet, lightly explicit intimacy.(see the generated image above)

Full Lyrics

Title: If The World Ends Tomorrow

[Intro]
The news keeps shouting “countdown’s near”
But I just pour another beer
The sky’s aflame, the moon looks shy
So hold me close before we die
We’ve watched the world spin out of tune
Now midnight tastes like sweet perfume

[Verse 1]
They say the sea’s gonna swallow Rome
And angels pack their bags for home
Some preacher counting down in vain
While streetlights hum a soft refrain
But here you stand in my old shirt
Grinning through the world’s last hurt
Your laugh could make the heavens wait
For one more round, for one last fate

[Verse 2]
You tease, “You panic way too soon”
I smile beneath a broken moon
You light a cigarette, confess
“The end could use a little mess”
And if the comets paint the sky
At least they saw your hazel eyes
So come on, babe, let go, let be
The end looks good on you and me

[Pre-Chorus]
All the clocks are drunk tonight
Ticking slow in borrowed light
Every echo, every sigh
Feels like laughter dressed to die

[Chorus]
If the world ends tomorrow, love me tonight
Let’s make the chaos feel gentle and right
If love’s the last thing the stars allow
Then let’s not wait — let’s start somehow

[Verse 3]
Your hair still smells like thunder rain
Your touch rewrites my every vein
You whisper things that sound like prayers
Half truth, half dare, half unawares
We kiss like thieves who stole the fire
Still drunk on hope, still full of wire
And if the lights don’t find their hue
At least the night belongs to you

[Bridge]
We’ll toast the stars with broken glass
Forgive the ghosts our hearts let pass
And if the sun forgets to rise
We’ll still have sparks in borrowed skies
We’ll dance on rooftops, lose our breath
Make love a protest song ’gainst death

[Verse 4]
Turn off the screen, come close to me
There’s still a world we’ve yet to see
Forget the floods, the greedy fight
Let’s build a heaven for one night
The sirens wail, the towers spin
But your smile’s where my faith begins
If this is it, then let it be
A small apocalypse for you and me

[Chorus Reprise]
If the world ends tomorrow, hold me tight
Let’s laugh at fate, it looks good tonight
If love’s the last sin we can follow
Then let’s not wait for some tomorrow

[Reprise]
The sky may crack, the ground may quake
But you’re still the best mistake I’ll make
Let’s fade like stars, let silence bloom
Two fools slow-dancing through the gloom

[Outro]
If the world ends tomorrow…
At least we lived tonight

If The World Ends Tomorrow

Barmann

Heavenly Father,

On this day we come before You with grateful hearts, thankful for the gift of another morning, for breath in our lungs, and for Your unending mercy that is new every day.

Lord Jesus, You are the light that shines in the darkness of this world. As we move through this day, help us to walk in Your truth, to reflect Your love in our words and actions, and to extend grace to those around us. Give us wisdom in our decisions, patience in difficulties, and courage to stand for what is right.

Holy Spirit, guide our steps and quiet our anxious thoughts. Fill us with Your peace that surpasses understanding, and remind us of Your presence in every moment—whether in joy or in trial.

We lift up those who are hurting today: the lonely, the sick, the grieving, and those facing uncertainty. Surround them with Your comfort and use us as instruments of Your kindness.

Forgive us where we have fallen short, and renew our hearts to love You more deeply and to love our neighbors as ourselves.

We trust You with this day and all that it holds, knowing that You are good, faithful, and always with us.

In the precious name of Jesus Christ, we pray.

Amen.

📝 Lyrics:

The mornings are dim
The evenings are long
Since you’ve been around
Every flower I once knew has been
Hollowed through and hung out on the line
And I sit and I think
And I hope and I wait
And I watch you take over while
The air disappears
And the wind’s a persistent beast
That rattles every corner of the mind

And when it’s time I’ll know
To stay or follow
This winter could be
Spring tomorrow

The days have been grey
The nights have been cold
Since you’ve been away
Every memory and photograph
Muddied up the river far behind
And I laugh and I cry
And I cry and I laugh
And I wash away tears
And I look at the clouds
And the trees sweetly whisper
That somewhere in the moment you’re around

And when it’s time I’ll know
To take or borrow
The love you left me
For tomorrow
Or give it away and
Move through the sorrow

And when it’s time I’ll know
To take or borrow
The love you left me
For tomorrow
Or give it away and
Move through the sorrow

Days, Nights

📝 Lyrics:

Your skin 
Breathes in me 
Your eyes 
Same as mine

My smile 
Is your smile 
We hike 
For miles

To be alone 
To be alone 
To be alone 
To be alone

It’s our space and time 
We hide behind 
Fields of gold 
What we hold

We are alone 
We are alone 
We are alone 
We are alone
We are alone 
We are alone 
We are alone 
We are alone

I Remember
