From the albums DOWN HOME (1970), SEALS AND CROFTS I AND II (1974) and
TODAY (1998, 2000)

Today went so softly, just faded away
Like the rain in the springtime
On that day, I met you. I met you, when I met you

Today went so quietly, I turned and it was gone
Like you, like me, it was lonely
It went on, it went on, it went on, it went on

Then a beautiful thing happened, and we were one
And all the world was a beautiful face to be lost in

Today went so quickly, just a moment in time
Like the hours in springtime
When you were mine, you were mine, you were mine, you were mine

Then a beautiful thing happened, and we were one
And all the world was a beautiful face to be lost in
Today! Today!
