Today

(альбом: Looks At Life - 1967)

Lost forever is yesterday
And I don't believe in tomorrow
I used to dream of a pot of gold
And it only brought me sorrow

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 ain't nothing but today

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

And wink at tomorrow it don't scare me
I only live in today
While you might sit with you're fingers crossed
And watch it all fade away

For tomorrow when it finally comes
When the curtain of dawn fades away
The hopes of many are crushed to dust
When they find ain't nothing but today
