She personally wrote and produced the song, which was nominated to "Song of the Year" at the "P3 Guld Awards" in 2005.

The first time the song came up on Tracks was on August 27, 2005. It was then on fifteenth place. The song kept on climbing up onto the list and was only a week later, on sixth place. On October 1, "Live Tomorrow" came in first place on "Tracks" and beat James Blunt's song "You're Beautiful" which had been in first place for three weeks. "Live Tomorrow" was in first place on "Tracks" for six weeks until "Hung Up" with Madonna took the place on November 12. The original track and lyrics were written by herself while the production was carried out by Iron-Moose records and later handed off to Warner Music Sweden. The song was used in the Swedish 2007 film Solstorm.

It's cold around me, the night is young
The sun has fallen
And I've become the lonely one
The moon is dancing among the clouds

And my knees are shaking
And my dreams are braking
But I know I live
But I know I live, today

I know we could live tomorrow
(Live tomorrow)
But I know I live today,
I know we could live tomorrow
But I don't think we should wait!
