[Chorus]
Tomorrow won't come, it's today
I woke up breathin', it's not too late
Wasted so much time bein' wasted
It's a miracle if we make it
Try to hold on to this crazy ride through time
We're here and nobody knows why
So do your best and try to learn from the lessons it teaches
Life ain't all balloons and beaches
[Verse 1]
Tommy fell on hard times now and he don't work
He got injured back in '19 loadin' his truck
The doctor said, "Take two as needed for pain"
Not knowin' he had a predisposition for addiction
Friends started noticin', but he wouldn't listen
He needs a ride еvery Friday to get his prescription, yеah
It was affectin' his appearance
Lookin' like a stranger to the ones he held nearest
It's like he was missin', but Tommy, he was hidin'
Buddies' reminiscin', they seen him walkin' when they're ridin'
They said, "What a shame, we tried to help, but wasn't able"
A few days later they seen his picture in the paper
[Chorus]
Tomorrow won't come, it's today
I woke up breathin', it's not too late
Wasted so much time bein' wasted
It's a miracle if we make it
Try to hold on to this crazy ride through time
We're here and nobody knows why
So do your best and try to learn from the lessons it teaches
Life ain't all balloons and beaches
[Verse 2]
Jenny graduated back in June
And she's got a smile that can light up the whole room
First week of college, she met a guy, they hit it off
And a few weeks later, she decided to take it off now
Hand in hand, joined at the hip all over campus
Fall break came, it's time to go and meet the parents
While she was home, Jenny went in to get checked
You're perfectly healthy, young lady, but you're pregnant
She couldn't believe it, man, her heart, it hit the floor
She was afraid he wouldn't want her anymore
Scared to tell her folks, but he made it all better
Squeezed her hand said, "Let's go and tell 'em together"
[Chorus]
Tomorrow won't come, it's today
I woke up breathin', it's not too late
Wasted so much time bein' wasted
It's a miracle if we make it
Try to hold on to this crazy ride through time
We're here and nobody knows why
So do your best and try to learn from the lessons it teaches
Life ain't all balloons and beaches
