The Giver [2014] (movie) - Here Today lyrics

I'm a long lost wondering soul trying to find where I belong (woah) And I'm looking for a place where it feels alright to be wrong (yeah) Just a loud-mouth, hard-headed, fool-hearted, stubborn-nose, song-of-a-gun (woah) Chip off the ole' block with a chip on my shoulder that weighs a ton All I know for sure is that nothing is forever And all that matters is how we get along together Life is harder every day that I get older I hope I figure out why I'm here before it's over Cuz we're here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow We're here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow Lead the way (hey!), never follow Here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow I've been stuck at home alone on nights when no one calls (woah) And I've had nights where I could take my pick or have 'em all (yeah) And I've had those days where I search my pockets for a nickel and a dime (woah) And I've had those days where trying to make money was a waste of my time I've had shiny brand new leather penny loafers And I've had torn-up, soiled teddys handed-over All I know for sure is that nothing is forever And all that matters is how we get along together Cuz we're here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow We're here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow Through the joy (hey!), and the sorrow We're here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow We aint promised tomorrow, so I'm gonna live for today Been from five star hotels to co*kroach motels And Rodeo Drive retail to thrift store resale I've had chauffeured town cars to an old broken-down car It aint what happens to you, it's what you do about it Cuz we're here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow Here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow Lead the way (hey!), never follow Here today (hey!), and gone tomorrow Here today (hey!)
