"Maybe Tomorrow" is a hit single recorded by American soul family quintet the Jackson 5, in 1971. "Maybe Tomorrow" was included on the Jackson 5's album of the same title, and was also featured on Goin' Back to Indiana. The song was released again in 2009 via a Carl Sturken and Evan Rogers' remix, with an orchestral arrangement by Rob Mounsey, from a compilation album The Remix Suite.

The song peaked at number 3 on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart, and at number 20 on the Billboard Hot 100.[3]

Cash Box said of it that the "group's delightful harmonies and a teasing rhythm section put a sparkling gloss into" the song.[4]
