They say take a chance
Live life on the edge
Never look back
Look forward instead

Don't worry, be happy
To thine own self be true
Live life to the fullest
Do what you must do

Live in the present
Let go of the past
Give it all you've got
Make the good times last

Stop and smell the roses
Give each person a smile
'Tis the first day of your life
So make it worthwhile

Yet, some of us hear this
And still wake up everyday
Wanting more out of life
But not paving the way

Until at last we are rattled
What if what they say should be true?
Today's just a present
That's been given to you

It can be gone in an instant
It could be taken away
So, take good care not to miss out
On what you could do with this day
