Lyrics
When I see the stars in the sky
I am looking back in time
A million years ago
Then I realize that I'm
Living in dreams of yesterdays
Living for dreams of tomorrow
Missing the moment I have right now
This is it
It's hard to say
Why I always look beyond today
My time may end before tomorrow comes
This is it
It's all I need
To live, to love every breath I breathe
This is all that counts right now
Absent-minded, lost in the clouds
Watching for a shooting star
Wond'ring what tomorrow may bring
The strumming of a sweet guitar
Bringing me back from where I've been
Tuning the world around me
Seizing the moment I have right now
This is it
It's hard to say
Why I always look beyond today
My time may end before tomorrow comes
This is it
It's all I need
To live, to love every breath I breathe
This is all that counts right now.
