I don't know what to say about today.
Just grasp it in my hands and throw it away.
Because every day is a brand new day.
And people start lives in a brand new way.

I don't know what to think, my mind is blank.
a feeling came over me, and my heart sank.
I just wanted to get my whiskey, and pour me a drink.
Forget about today, and try not to think.

There's a big life ahead that's in store for me.
I can't be feelin' down, what will be will be.
But I choose not to carry my days in despair.
Just enjoy my days, and breathe the fresh air.

Even if I don't come around, i don't mean to let you down.
I just need time alone, and time to hang around.
Hang out with good friends, just like it used to be.
Footloose and fancy free, enjoying me being me.

Things are not the same, they're gettin' better.
better and better each and every day.
Just as long as I keep being myself.
Love is sure to find a way.
