Live For The Day Lyrics

Live For The Day lyrics

The light of morn pours through the window
To settle on pages torn
The
book, so old, vainly the truth waits for
Someone to read but is
untold
Time is running out for the answer is clearer now

Behind the
ordinary lives something quite impure
A latent visionary sees that which
can't endure
They take away the sadness, they take away the pain
They say
she'll never have to think for herself again

Live for the day, live life
the way you want to
Give what you may
But don't let them take life from
you

Too young, too shy, but even her ancestors
Knew not when they
would die
The sands of time slipping away
Whilst she meditates on her
last crime
Time is running out for the answer is clearer now

Behind
the ordinary lives something quite impure
Holy they masquerade and purport
to hold the cure
They take away the sadness, they take away the pain
They
say she'll never have to think for herself again

Live for the day, live
and do what you want to
Give what you may
But don't let them take life
from you
Live for the day, live life the way you want to
Give what you
may
But don't let them take life from you

They're counting the sands
of time
They're touching the sound of moonlight
They're sealing the book
of life
They're taking the truth from time

Behind the ordinary lives
something quite impure
The taste of innocence found
That taste which
can't endure
They take away the sadness, they take away the pain
They say
she'll never have to think for herself again

Live for the day, live and
do what you want to
Give what you may
But don't let them take life from
you
Live for the day, live life the way you want to
Give what you
may
But don't let them take life from you
