Living for Today - The Lambrettas

Looking down from the mountains and out to the sea

You’re aware in a moment, you’re nothing in the scheme

But your vanity told you, you’re more than a dot

And your arrogance keeps you, from thinking that you’re not

So when it hits you, you’re fading away

Cos you won’t live forever, start living for today

And the seasons are changing, faster all the time

Every day seems to pass by in the wink of an eye

Old man on the corner, laughing like a child

Clinging to a bottle, his broken eyes wild

Kept on a laughing, the people turned away

But he knows something we don’t, he’s living for today

So you crawl through your lifetime, a slave to the grind

But time overtook you, and left you far behind

So don’t bother running, the moment is gone

Eats you like a cancer, but still you struggle on

Why try to fight it, you’re dying anyway?

The future doesn’t matter when you’re living for today

Are you living for today?

Looking down from the mountains and out to the sea

You’re aware in a moment, you’re nothing in the scheme

But your vanity told you, you’re more than a dot

And your arrogance keeps you, from thinking that you’re not

So when it hits you, you’re fading away

Cos you won’t live forever, start living for today

You’re fading away

You’re fading away

Start living for today

Start living for today

Just try to live for today and don’t hurt anybody…
