tommy emmanuel - today is mine lyrics
when the sun came up this morning
i took the time to watch it rise
and as its beauty struck the darkness
from the skies
i thought how small and unimportant
all my troubles seemed to be
and how lucky another day belongs to me
and as the sleepy world around me
woke up to greet the day
all its silent beauty
seemed to say
“so what, my friend, if all your dreams
you haven’t realised,
look around you boy, you’ve got a whole new day to try”
today is mine, today is mine to do with what i will
today is mine, my own special cup to fill
to die a little, that i might learn to live
and take from life, that i might learn to give
today is mine
and, like all men, i curse the present
that seems void of peace of mind
and i race my thoughts beyond tomorrow
envision there more peace of mind
but when i view the day around me
i can see the fool i’ve been
for today is the only garden that we can tend
today is mine today is mine to do with what i will
today is mine, my own special cup to fill
to die a little that i might learn to live
and take from life that i might learn to give
today is mine
