It ain't no good to lay in bed at night
And think about the past
About how you could have done things differently
But they just happened way too fast

Why don't you close your eyes, go to sleep'
Let the angels bring you dreams
Let that pain unwind behind you
And float away on silent streams

You got to live your life the best you can
Though you sometimes do your worst
You gotta laugh when you fail, it doesn't matter any way
Life is a play that's unrehearsed

Don't make too many plans for tomorrow
You can't control what lies ahead
Why don't you try to live each moment
As it comes instead'

There is no use dreaming of a perfect future
Or regretting a troubled past
It's only today that counts
So live it like it might be your last
It's only today that counts
So live it like it might be your last

It never helps to worry, it never hurts to pray
Tomorrow will come soon enough, you better take care of today
You got to learn to trust your life to God
You know the future is in his hand
And only faith will help you meet your life's demands

There is no use dreaming of a perfect future
Or regretting a troubled past
It's only today that counts
So live it like it might be your last
It's only today that counts
So live it like it might be your last
It's only today that counts
So live it like it might be your last
It's only today that counts
So live it like it might be your last
It's only today that counts
So live it like it might be your last
It's only today that counts
So live it like it might be your last
C'mon open up your heart and live
Open up your heart and live
You've got to live...
