Lyrics:
I'm Living For Today
Douglas Stanglin and Janet Devers
When I was a young man,
half a dollar in my jeans
I thought about the years to come
And what it all might mean
Then I got a little older
With a lot more bills to pay
And thought about the years gone by
And regrets along the way
Chorus:
BUT NOW I'M LIVING FOR TODAY
NOT THE FUTURE, NOT THE PAST.
DON'T WANT TO MISS THOSE SHOOTING STARS
THAT COME AND GO SO FAST.
TOO MANY WARM EMBRACES MISSED,
TOO MANY KISSES LEFT UNKISSED
NO SENSE IN LOOKING BACK/ Now I greet each sunrise/I greet each sunrise now
OR DWELLING ON THE PAST/As if it were my last
I'M LIVING FOR TODAY
A brand new world's unfolding
Right before my eyes,
Each time I watch a bird take flight;
Hear a newborn baby’s sigh.
Wipe a teardrop from a lover’s cheek,
Or hold my aging mother’s hand.
These moments rise and then they're gone
Like waves upon the sand.
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
It doesn't really matter, how many years have passed
Just dare to meet each sunrise
As if it were your last.
Repeat Chorus
