Today

The New Christy Minstrels


Chorus 1
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries; I’ll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
‘Ere I forget all the joy that is mine today

I’ll be a dandy and I’ll be a rover
You’ll know who I am by the song that I sing
I’ll feast at your table; I’ll sleep in your clover
Who cares what the morrow shall bring

Chorus 2
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries; I’ll drink your sweet wine

I can’t be contented with yesterday’s glory
I can’t live on promises winter to spring
Today is my moment and now is my story
I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing

Repeat Chorus 1
