Today

by Gina Schneller

A new day, today was your tomorrow.
Yesterday you said today is the day.
Today was the day you would start over.
Yet here you are pushing to tomorrow.

Boy you're so confusing, your mind jumbled.
Thoughts and good intentions mixed together.
You have a heart of gold, that I do know.
I could never question your love for me.

You need to take the wheel and sail this ship.
Step up and be the man I know you are.
Put aside what holds you back, keeps you there.
Sort through the trash in your way, find the door.
You can't be happy while there is sadness.

So let's just forget about yesterday.
Fight now to make today your tomorrow
Don't worry about what happened last week.
Focus now on all the days that follow.
