Campbell, Glen - Today Is Mine Lyrics






When the sun came up this morning I took the time to watch it rise
And as its beauty struck the darkness from the sky
I thought how small and unimportant all my troubles seem to be
And how lucky another day belongs to me
And as the sleepy world around me woke up to greet the day
All its silent beauties seemed to say
So what my friend if all your dreams you have and realized
Just look around you you got a whole new day to try
Today is mine today is mine to do with what I will
Today is mine my own special cup to fill
To die a little that I might learn to live to take from life that I might learn to give
Today is mine

Like most men I cursed the present to avoid the peace of mind
And raise my thoughts beyond tomorrow and vision there more peace of mind
But as I view this day around me I can see the fool I've been
For today's the only garden we can tend
Today is mine...

    I think we live in a wondrous age. When I woke this morning, I actually woke with this song on my mind. So with my computer, the song title and Glen's name, in minutes I'm listening to it, courtesy of You Tube. Too many people today take life for granted, myself included. The words to the lyrics of "Today Is Mine" sum up an ideal we should all strive to live up to. "To die a little, that I might learn to live, to take from life, that I might learn to give, today is mine". So true, so appropriate. Thank you Glen and to you Jerry, you're sadly missed, but not forgotten...

  23. B.... ....

    One of the greatest songs ever written with lyrics that enrich the mind and soul. Jerry Reed's songwriting with Glen's singing is simply a case of TALENT OVERLOAD!

  24. J.... K....

    Today is Mine - Glen Campbell (CD Album: Jimmy Kielbasa of San Jose, California - Volume 2) (Track 4)

    I like to dedicate this beautiful & perfect song to the wonderful time my Daughter Sierra (who was 11 at the time) & I had in Disney World exactly 10 years ago today April 19, 2006. When I reflect on it today it was the "perfect day" everything went better that we could have wished for, weather etc +. This was part of a 6-day trip that will live in our hearts forever in fact our picture was even taken at Leave A Legacy at Epcot so that wonderful time was frozen & is always there among thousands of others who visited Disney. I took my Daughter "many" places as she was growing up but this trip to Disney was without a doubt the all-time best one of all & it brings a tear to listen to this song & look back on how it was than, especially when I know it won't happen anymore because my Daughter is now 21 & a little to old for Disney now, but many times I wish I could travel back & do it all over again!! Love you Sierra DAD :)
