The Here & Now (Pickup)

Control your eyes, slow your mind for a while
Stop living in tomorrow, you belong here and now
Close your eyes, breathe slow for a while
Until the air tastes right, until it feels like today

When all your joy’s only for what could be
It may never come, and you may never leave
And all you get is a taste of regret
And all of the ‘what if’ turns to ‘never was’ … hasn’t happened yet
    What’s left for today? What’s left for today?
    What’s left for today? What’s left for today?
I’m not one to sit and say, “everyone go seize the day”
Just let it be and do your best, to be in it … and it be in you

Control your eyes, slow your mind for a while
Stop living in tomorrow, you belong here and now
Close your eyes, breathe slow for a while
Until the air tastes right, until it feels like today
    What’s left for today? What’s left for today?
    What’s left for today? What’s left for today?
