Lyrics - Today

I've made mistakes, some impossible to choose
I've no regrets, some I win, but most I lose
My life's not simple and it just gets harder all the time

Maybe someday we can look up to the stars
Make a wish and land on Jupiter or Mars
The Great Escape plan with no more people to confuse
Just kick off my shoes and jump

  Today, they're gonna take me away
Today, they're gonna take me away
When I wake up, I breathe in deep and taste the air
All I get are complications everywhere
Someday soon I will cut the cord and break away
Do you hear what I say, say .....?
  Today, they're gonna take me away
Today, they're gonna take me away
Today
If one and one and one are two
Then all I ever seem to do
Is get it right and in the groove
I always win and never lose
  Today, today, they're gonna take me away
Today, today, they're gonna take me away
Today, today, they're gonna take me away
Today.

I was never keen on this track at the time. But now several years later it's stood the test of time. About getting up and enjoying the day.
