Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
Here today
gone tomorrow
along with our happiness
and our sorrow
Our seeds are planted
then we grow
living, some thriving
by what we know
Days, weeks, months
then years
we savor our laughter
and dry our tears
In the sunshine
and through the rain
we pray our existence
is not in vain
Along with our happiness
and our sorrow
here today
gone tomorrow
