“Never say goodbye,
You say tomorrow's another day,
All I know is we're here today.”

Yoko Ono (1933) Japanese artist, author, and peace activist

"Never Say Goodbye" on It's Alright (I See Rainbows) (1982).
Context: Never say goodbye,
You say tomorrow's another day,
All I know is we're here today. I've got nightmares I could never share with you,
The kind that keeps me up all night.
So hold me tight till the room is light
And tell me that it's all right.
