[Verse 1]
Let's go for a drive in the car
Thinking how we've come so far
Oh-ooh-oooh, got a long way to go
Will we ever weather the storm?
We're cold, when will we ever get warm?
Oh-ooh-oooh, oh-ooh-ooooh

[Pre-Chorus]
We've never had enough money to pay the rent
And if we ever got lucky, we would spend every last cent
And we would say...

[Chorus 1]
Why don't we just live today
Tomorrow’s too far away
We want a reason to say one day
That we did our best to keep the dream alive
To keep the dream alive

[Verse 2]
In the place that we are
Cruising across the country by car
Oh-ooh-oooh, got a long way to go
Pack up all the kids in the van
Maybe we could fly to Japan
Oh-ooh-oooh, oh-ooh-ooooh
[Pre-Chorus]
We've never had enough money to pay the rent
And if we ever got lucky, we would spend every last cent
And we would say...

[Chorus 1]
Why don't we just live today
Tomorrow’s too far away
We want a reason to say one day
That we did our best to keep the dream alive
To keep the dream alive

[Bridge]
To keep the dream alive
To keep the dream alive
Why don't we just live today
To keep the dream alive

[Chorus 2]
Why don't we just live today
Tomorrow's too far away
We want our daughters to say one day
That we did our best to keep the dream alive
To keep the dream alive
