PEARL JAM - Live For Today lyrics

rate me

we had this bright idea one late summer night

candy-coated popcorn strung like a beaded curtain hung over your door

i guess the heat got to it, dripped and melted all over the floor

chocolate-covered cherries in tin foil boats float around the floorboard

i had to laugh not to cry

now all your possessions, all of your things, all of your hopes, schemes, desires, and most of all, your dreams

all gone away...gone away...

all gone away...gone away...

all gone away

"live for today", you said, "live for today"

i had to laugh not to cry

i had to laugh not to cry, not to cry...
