Tomorrow I Go was the Albanian entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 in Kiev performed by Ledina Çelo.
As Albania had finished seventh in the final of the 2004 contest, the song was automatically qualified for the final. Here it was performed eighth in the running order, following Moldova and preceding Cyprus. At the close of voting the song had received 53 points, placing 16th and returning the country to the semi-final for the 2006 contest.
The song is sung from the point of view of a young woman on the eve of her wedding. She tells her mother not to be sad about losing her, because it should be a happy occasion of celebration.
An Albanian version of the song was also produced, entitled "Nesër shkoj" ("Tomorrow I will leave").
Lyrics[]
Please don’t be sad, it’s like you always dreamed
I wear the white veil, oh mother, bless me please
Don’t you cry, tomorrow I go
The last night falling
Do you recall how I would imagine a white wedding dress?
And now finally my time is here
I know that I will miss your sweet words singing
Maybe I’ll cry
Still I hope you will sing, sing for me
Ti-ti-da… eh ti-ti-da…
Lift the drum beat, raise your voice
Ti-ti-da… eh ti-ti-da…
May the whole world shake as one
Let the song begin
Celebrate the dance within
Ti-ti-da-ti…
Maybe I’ll cry
Still I hope you will sing, sing for me
Ti-ti-da… eh ti-ti-da…
Lift the drum beat, raise your voice
Ti-ti-da… eh ti-ti-da…
May the whole world shake as one
Let the song begin
Celebrate the dance within
Ti-ti-da…
Eh ti-ti-da… eh ti-ti-da…
Lift the drum beat, raise your voice
Ti-ti-da… eh ti-ti-da…
May the whole world shake as one
Let the song begin
Celebrate the dance within
Ti-ti-da-ti…
Oh…
Ti-ti-da… eh ti-ti-da…
Let the song begin
Celebrate the dance within
Ti-ti-da-ti…
