Hank Locklin - I forgot to live today songtekst

Je score:

My key turns in the lock
And I open my front door
Greeted by the darkness
Like too many times before.

I tiptoe in to kiss the children
But they're all asleep
Wonder if they're dreaming
About the date I didn't keep.

It was such a busy day
I just couldn't get away
'Cause you gotta make it
While you can.

So I remember dollar bills
Business deals and headache pills
But I forgot to live today
I forgot to live today.

As I dressed for bed
I think about today
Wonder what I got
For all the time I gave away.

Traded my time for a dollar bill
Didn't see the sky but I saw the mill
Couldn't go to Jeannie's play
Missed Timmy's ballgame yesterday.

Mary had to go for both of us
While I remember dollar bills
business deals and headache pills
But I forgot to live today
I forgot to live today.

Born with all the time I'll ever see
Each day another part
Alips away from me
But I forgot to live today.

As I slip into bed
And I kiss my Mary's cheek
I can tell she's crying
And I know she's not asleep.

I listen to the clock tick
Away another night
And swear that tomorrow
I'll make everything right.

I'll remember building kites
Mending dolls and broken bikes
Flowers for the woman in my life.

And I remember who I love
More than all the stars above
'Cause I forgot to live today
I forgot to live today...
