What About Today

The tears I'm shedding now
 I hear will dry in time
 The fears I'm fearing now
 I hear will die in time
 But while I wait around for tomorrow
 Watching life drift away
 What about, yes, what about today?
 I know if I just wait
 The sun will shine someday
 And when it does
 The weather will be fine someday
 But while the skies I search for tomorrow
 Stay that same shade of grey
 What about, yes, what about today?
 'Til nirvana comes
 What about today?
 'Til Messiah comes
 What about today?
 'Til the mountains move
 And oceans part
 And angels sing
 And life can start
 What about, yes, what about today?
 I can't help wondering
 If tomorrow ever comes
 And what's my life
 Been lived for if it never comes
 I've heard a lot of toasts to tomorrow
 But none of them ever say
 What about today?
 What about today?
 'Til nirvana comes
 What about today?
 'Til Messiah comes
 What about today?
 'Til the mountains move
 And oceans part
 And angels sing
 And life can start
 What about, yes, what about today?
 I can't help wondering
 If tomorrow ever comes
 And what's my life
 Been lived for if it never comes?
 I've heard a lot of toast to tomorrow
 None of them ever say
 What about today?
 What about today?
 What about, yes, what about today?
