Life In One Day

The old man said to me

Said don't always take life so seriously

Play the flute

And dance and sing your song



Try and enjoy the here and now

The future will take care of itself somehow

The grass is never greener over there

Time will wear away the stone

Gets the hereditary bone



Chorus

Don't try to live your life in one day

Don't go speed your time away

Don't try to live your life in one day

Don't go speed your time away



The old man said to me

Said you can't change the world single-handedly

Raise a glass enjoy the scenery

Pretend the water is champagne

And fill my glass again and again

While the wolves are gathering round your door

Time will wear away the stone

Gets the hereditary bone



The old man said to me

Said don't always take life so seriously

Play the flute

And dance and sing your song



Try and enjoy the here and now

The future will take care of itself somehow

The grass is never greener over there

Time will wear away the stone

Gets the hereditary bone



I tried to live my life in one day

Don't go speed your time away



I bit off more than i can chew

Only so much you can do



Wolves are gathering round my door

Ask them in and invite some more



I tried to live my life in one day

Don't go speed your time away
