Today

Today, while the blossom still clings to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries, I’ll drink your sweet wine
And a million tomorrows shall all pass away
‘Ere I forget all the joys that are mine today

Well I’ll be a dandy and I’ll be a rover
You’ll know who I am by the songs that I sing
I’ll feast at your table and lie in your clover
I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing

Today while the blossom still clings to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries, I’ll drink your sweet wine
And a million tomorrows shall all pass away
‘Ere I forget all the joy that is mine today

I won’t be contented with yesterdays glories
I can’t live on promises winter to spring
This is my moment and now is my story
Who knows what tomorrow will bring

Today while the blossom still clings to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries I’ll drink your sweet wine
And a million tomorrows shall all pass away
‘Ere I forget all the joy that is mine today
