Today is today Don’t let the past get in the way I don’t believe in yesterday Today is today Your plastic flowers wilt in layers of dust Your precious trophies caked in coats of rust When all of your tomorrows looks like yesterday There’s nothing left to say Today is today Don’t let the past get in the way I don’t believe in yesterday Today is today You said the one thing you should never say Here come all those problems that seemed so far away Was love just a game, just a game to play? Enjoy you holiday Today is today Don’t let the past get in the way I don’t believe in yesterday Today is today Today is today Don’t let the past get in the way I don’t believe in yesterday Today is today

When you wake in the morning There’s a lot yet to be done So let’s open the present And peek just for fun I’ll be by your side no matter if it’s rain or sun Day by day Day by day And you don’t ever want to end a day like this This your time To soak in the cosmic rays This is your chance Dance, work, and play I’ll be by your side to wipe any tears away Day by day Day by day And you don’t ever want to end a day like this Day by day Day by day And you don’t ever want to end a day like this

Before the ending of the day Tell me what you want to say Tell, tell me who has to pay I want to hear you say Before the ending of the day Before the ending of the day You might choose to walk away Before we lose the light of day I want to hear you say Before the ending of the day We can barely breathe when the silence settles in We can barely speak when the anger turns to sin Before the ending of the day Before the shadows overtake us Before the sheets get in the way I want to hear you say Before the ending of the day We can barely breathe when the silence settles in We can barely speak when the anger turns to sin Before the ending of the day Before the ending of the day Before the ending

It's the happiest day of my life It's the happiest day of my life Welcome to the world; I’ll be by your side It’s the happiest day of my life Ten little fingers; ten little toes You’ve got your daddy’s eyes, and your mamma’s nose I can’t wait to watch you grow and grow and grow and grow It's the happiest day of my life It's the happiest day of my life Welcome to the world; I’ll be by your side It’s the happiest day of my life You’re so fragile; you’re so small Not much bigger than a China doll I guess before you run you’ve gotta crawl It's the happiest day of my life It's the happiest day of my life Welcome to the world; I’ll be by your side It’s the happiest day of my life In the wee hours to keep me sane I need a simple tune to hum in my brain I’ll be rocking you to sleep again and again and again It's the happiest day of my life It's the happiest day of my life Welcome to the world; I’ll be by your side It’s the happiest day of my life And it’s all because of you I love everything you do And it’s true; everyday I’m with you It’s the happiest, happiest better than the day before The happiest, happiest I don’t think I could love more Happiest, happiest, happiest, happiest day It's the happiest day of my life It's the happiest day of my life Welcome to the world; I’ll be by your side It’s the happiest day of my life Oh sweet child, you opened my eyes It’s the happiest day of my life
