Today Medley

(album: Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head - 1970)

But lost forever is yesterday
And I don't believe in tomorrow
I used to dream of the rainbow's end
But it only brought me sorrow

And every day, I grow and die
As though it might be my last
I kiss each minute with a thankful smile
And turn my back on the past

I used to think that the road stretched on
Till it went this whole world round
But now I've learned to live my life
Before the sun goes down

For tomorrow, when it finally comes
When the curtain of dawn fades away
The hopes of many are crushed to dust
When they find there is nothing but today

While the blossoms still cling to the vine
Taste your strawberries
And drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Then you forget all the joy that is founded today

I can't be contented with yesterday's glory
I can't live on promises winter to spring
Today is my moment, and now is my story
I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing

But lost forever is yesterday
And I don't believe in tomorrow
I used to dream of the rainbow's end
But it only brought me sorrow
