Livin' For Today

Laney Jones

Compositor: Laney Jones

Oh baby, don’t it feel so grand
Just a sittin’ holding your hand
Don’t the future seem so far away
'Cause I am living for today

Throw your troubles down a wishing well
Put a penny in your show
And for good measure, for worse or for better
Hum this little happy tune

Dressed by the moonlight, those silver seams
Love is a feeling and life a routine
But when you hear that band playing
All the world is really saying

Stumble down that golden road
Step by step you’ll dance a mile
And all the while child you can smile and say
That you have lived it for today

Maybe it’s wrong or maybe it’s right
Maybe it’s a shade of blue in the night
But when you get to those pearly gates
You have lived it for today
