Alicia Keys - Paper Flowers (Originals) lyrics

[Verse 1: Alicia Keys] Somebody never told me there's a last time for everything Even a landslide is an opening Turning metal into gold So the line is somebody never told me [Chorus: Alicia Keys] Paper flowers don't die But neither do they live like you and I Lightning never striking twice is a lie Like good things coming when you wait To tell the truth, I gotta say I don't believe in yesterday I don't wanna live forevеr, anyway For a moment that was never hеre to stay Forget about tomorrow For just today [Verse 2: Brandi Carlile] Somebody never told me there's a first time for everything It's a free fall, discovery On the day you get that call and the waiting is over It all changes in the blink of an eye [Chorus: Alicia Keys & Brandi Carlile, Alicia Keys, Brandi Carlile] Paper flowers don't die But neither do they live like you and I Lightning never striking twice is a lie Like good things coming when you wait To tell the truth, I gotta say I don't believe in yesterday I don't wanna live forever, anyway For a moment that was never here to stay Forget about tomorrow (Forget about tomorrow) Just for today Forget about tomorrow Just for today (Just for today) Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah Just for today
