Today

If you should wake and find me gone

Keep safe this night and dwell upon

Such murmurations, sun sunk deep

Now close your eyes and go to sleep

What a day it's been

A day of shoot the breezing

What a day it's been this time of year

Oh, yes, it has

Just a day when the weight of the world slides away

Feel that sun on your back

See the shadows falling

Sea meets shore and soothes it with a song

Oh, yeah

If this should be my last day on Earth, I'll sing along

Let's forget all the skies cast over and gray

And the squalling tempests of doubt

Holding on, clinging tight in the wreckage of love

But today

What a time to dream, what a day of easy

What a day it's been this time of year

Oh, yeah

Just a day when the weight of the world slides away

Evening star, a guitar in the smoke of the fire

Light of gold in the garden of old

I would take it all again if it came my way

But today
