I will never understand
What it takes to make a man
Staring at my bedroom wall
Wishing I was ten feet tall
Loves the reason you’re the dream
But your ain’t no beauty queen
Making love between the fights
You better watch out for my mind
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today
Love tomorrow
Scha Scha
Stood on hopelessness aside
Intuition is my guide
Again and again you tell me things
That try to make my hopes begin
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today
Love tomorrow
Live today
(Live today, love tomorrow)
(Live today, love tomorrow)
(Live today, love tomorrow)
Wohooo
Scha Scha
Many times I’ve stopped to wander
Then love came and stole my thunder
Ask me questions tell me lies
Until I despise you
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today
Love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
(Live today, love tomorrow)
(Live today, love tomorrow)
Live tomorrow
(Live today, love tomorrow)
(Live today, love tomorrow)
Love tomorrow
Live today, love love tomorrow
Live today, love love tomorrow
Live today, love love tomorrow
Live today, love love tomorrow
Live today, love tomorrow
Love tomorrow
Live today
Woohhhoooo
