"'Live Tomorrow'" is the third single by Swedish singer-songwriter Laleh from her self-titled debut album, released on 31 August 2005. She personally wrote and produced the song, which was nominated to "Song of the Year" at the "P3 Guld Awards" in 2005.

The song became a success when it came in first on the Swedish radio station SR P3's radio show "Tracks" '(Trackslistan)' where listeners vote for their favourite songs in a top 20 list. The first time the song came up on Tracks was on 27 August 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 1 October "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 12 November. 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'.
