It takes one seeming silent sigh to start afresh
a world of dawns in golden red,
beams of a sun that break over turbulent, troubled waters
So let’s make today great.
When the rain comes…
let’s not reach for covers,
but rather dance in the refreshing showers
When the world spins…
let’s not slam on the breaks,
but rather throw arms to the sky and laugh in the thrill
Let’s make today great.
Let’s
Let’s live for the moment,
if only for the moment
Let’s make today great.
Let’s
let’s live today.
Let’s live only each day,
as this is the only way
we can live all the days of our lives,
not missing a single one.
Let’s…
Let’s live today
Let’s live tomorrow
Let’s live each day
Let’s…
Let’s live.
