|
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?
|
|
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 (winter to spring)
|
|
Today is my moment and now is my story
|
|
I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing
|
|
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 mi-uh-ine today
