"All My Tomorrows" is a 1959 ballad with lyrics by Sammy Cahn and music by Jimmy van Heusen.[2][3] The song was written for Frank Sinatra.[4] It was introduced in the film A Hole in the Head where Sinatra sings it in the opening credits.[5]
Sinatra later featured "All My Tomorrows" on his 1961 album All the Way. Sinatra re-recorded it for his 1969 album My Way, in a new arrangement which writer Charles L. Granata considered superior to the original,[6] and which Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic called "lush and aching".[7] Rolling Stone described the song as "the poignant monologue of a man determined to turn his life around".[8] This version also contains a melody from Sinatra's 1966 hit "Strangers In The Night."
