[Chorus]
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I 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 tomorrow shall bring?
[To chorus]

I can’t be contented with yesterday’s glories;
I can’t live on promises winter to spring.
Today is my moment, And now is my story
I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing
[To chorus]
