Stairway
 
The futures worries I care not
For tomorrow is uncertain
I rise from bed and set myself
To look beyond my curtain

Everyday is new for me
And will be better than the last
Yesterdays are forgotten
But theres knowledge from the past

Everyday, a single step
To which make up a flight
My eyes look only at the stair
The rest fall out of sight

The next step soon will come
Then followed by another
But if you dwell too long on one
It soon becomes the other

Know that life does not repeat
And treat it like a game
For you will never have a day
Thats exactly the same

So live everyday anew
As if it were your last
And keep your life in front of you
Instead of in the past
