There is no future
In always living in the past
No matter how good those days were
They were never meant to last

Always looking to the future
Causes you to miss so much
The joys of life
Friends, family and such

It is good to think of the future
And it's good to reflect on the past
But you need to live in the here and now
Because life truly goes by fast

If you woke up this morning
You've been given another day
But it's one of a limited number
Do not let it waste away

The present is just that
A gift you have been given
Get the best out of each hour
In this life that you're livin'

Thankful for everything
With malice toward none
Ending the day with a clear conscience
In all you've said and done

You will find that the present
Isn't such a bad place to be
It is where memories are made
Just try it, you'll see.
