We Have Today

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Coffee rings on the kitchen page Your blue coat hanging by the door The train can wait another minute I don't need yesterday anymore [Pre-Chorus] You say the week is running fast I say then let it run right past [Chorus] Today, put your hand in mine Take the long way past the corner sign Today, let the small things stay A warm piece of bread, your laugh, the afternoon rain We don't need a better day We have today [Verse 2] The market man counts out the peaches One soft bruise, two that won't keep You choose the sweetest from the basket And save the best one just for me [Pre-Chorus] The hours are coins we cannot save So spend them where your heart feels brave [Chorus] Today, put your hand in mine Take the long way past the corner sign Today, let the small things stay A warm piece of bread, your laugh, the afternoon rain We don't need a better day We have today [Bridge] If tomorrow brings a different door We'll meet it when it reaches the floor But right now your shoulder touches mine And that is plenty for this time [Final Chorus] Today, put your hand in mine Take the long way past the corner sign Today, let the small things stay A warm piece of bread, your laugh, the afternoon rain We don't need a better day We have today [Outro] Leave the dishes by the sink Stay a little longer, don't overthink Today We have today
