I'll be a dandy and I'll be a rover
You'll know who I am by the song that I sing
I'll ease at your table and I'll sleep in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow shall bring

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries and I'll drink your sweet wine
And a million tomorrows shall all pass away
Here I forget all the joy that is mine today

I can't be contented with yesterday's glory
I can't live on promises winter just brings
Today is my moment and right now is my story
While I laugh and I cry and I sing

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries and I'll drink your sweet wine
And a million tomorrows shall all pass away
Here I forget all the joy that is mine today
