Today Is Never Coming Back
Seizing Today's Promise: A Musical Journey by Simon Schuett
Lyrics
She said let's go
Initiating a suggestion to leave or embark on a journey
I said I don't know
Expressing uncertainty or reluctance to comply
I am too old
Feeling too aged or experienced for the proposed action
I'm not that bold to try it out
Lacking the courage to take a risk and try something new
I thought let's stay
Suggesting an alternative of staying rather than leaving
Find another way
Considering finding a different approach or solution
Don't have to leave the things we're used to using now
Comfort in staying with familiar things or routines
My coffee machine
Mentioning a mundane but habitual item (coffee machine)
Instead of chasing the dream
Preferably engaging in daily routines than pursuing aspirations
Moving far
Resisting the idea of moving far away
And choosing one guitar
Choosing simplicity (one guitar) over complexity
But I said today
Expressing a sudden decision to embark on an adventure today
Let's fly away
Proposing to seize the opportunity to travel immediately
While we can
Emphasizing the need to make plans while the chance exists
Gotta make that plan
Underscoring the importance of taking action at present
Whatever I do today
Committing to not dwell on or stress about past actions
I don't worry about yesterday
Focus on living in the present and not being consumed by the past
What I do now, I won't regret
Determination to avoid future regrets for current choices
today is never coming back
Highlighting the irretrievability of today once it passes
And we've discussed
Discussing the potential outcomes or benefits of a decision
What's in there for us
Reflection on what the future holds for both parties involved
All those nights
Recalling past experiences or moments
What it feels like
Describing the emotional experience of those past moments
Got to risk it now
Emphasizing the necessity of taking risks in the present
Got to move somehow
Stressing the need to take steps forward despite uncertainties
Not the same every day
Noting the variability in daily experiences, possibly in a positive manner
Well in a good way
Highlighting the positive aspects of the changes experienced
Whatever I do today
Reiteration of not worrying about past actions or choices
I don't worry about yesterday
Continued emphasis on living in the present moment
What I do now, I won't regret
Avoiding future regrets by making mindful choices now
today is never coming back
Reaffirmation of the irreversible nature of passing time
The old dog barks before grey turns to black
Metaphorically referring to aging with the analogy of an old dog barking
(To black)
Reiteration of the fading nature of time or experiences
All my toys are never coming back
Symbolizing lost or unattainable past possessions or joys
(To black)
Emphasizing the permanence of losses or changes
Oh and my bones regret
Expressing regret for past decisions or actions
Yesterday is never coming back
Stating the irrevocability of past moments
Whatever I do today
Reiteration of the importance of present actions and choices
I don't worry about yesterday
Continued emphasis on not dwelling on past actions
What I do now, I won't regret
Avoiding future regrets by focusing on mindful actions in the present
today is never coming
Emphasizing the fleeting nature of the present moment
is never coming
Reiteration of the irretrievability of passing time
yeah it's never coming back
Final confirmation of the inability to reclaim the past
