Backstory:

The title is pretty explanatory. "Living For Today" is a song about getting everything out of life now, not looking back or forward but staying in the present.                     

Lyrics:

                                                  
[Verse 1]
When I was a young man,
half a dollar in my jeans
I thought about the years to come
And what it all might mean
Then I got a little older
With a lot more bills to pay
And thought about the years gone by
And regrets along the way

[Chorus]
But now I'M LIVING FOR TODAY
Not the future, not the past
Don't want to miss those shooting stars
That come and go so fast.
Too many warm embraces missed,
Too many kisses left un-kissed
No Sense in looking back 
Or dwelling on the past  
I'M LIVING FOR TODAY

[Verse 2]
A brand new world's unfolding
Right before my eyes,
Each time I watch a bird take flight;
Hear a newborn baby’s sigh.
Wipe a teardrop from my lover’s cheek,
Or hold my aging father's hand.
These moments rise and then they're gone 
Like waves upon the sand. 

[Chorus]
So now I'M LIVING FOR TODAY
Not the future, not the past
Don't want to miss those shooting stars
That come and go so fast.
Too many warm embraces missed,
Too many kisses left un-kissed
No Sense in looking back 
Or dwelling on the past  
I'M LIVING FOR TODAY

Bridge:
It doesn't really matter, how many years have passed
Just dare to greet each sunrise
As if it were your last.

[Chorus]
So now I'M LIVING FOR TODAY
Not the future, not the past
Don't want to miss those shooting stars
That come and go so fast.
Too many warm embraces missed,
Too many kisses left un-kissed
I greet each sunrise now
As if it were my last
I'M LIVING FOR TODAY
I greet each sunrise now
As if it were my last
I’m Living For Today
