The Last Day
============
w&m: Brenda Russell & John Ewbank, 1998
Performed by Marilyn Scott (CD: "Avenues of Love")

[Verse 1]
If today were the last of all days,
Would it change how you feel, who you are?
Would you rise for a moment above all your fears,
Become one with the moon and the stars?

[Verse 2]
Would you like what you see looking down?
Did you give ev'rything that you could?
Have you done ev'rything that you wanted to do?
Is there still so much more that you would?

[Refrain]
Follow your dream to the end of the rainbow,
Way beyond one pot of gold;
Open your eyes to the colors around you
And find the true beauty life holds.

[Verse 3]
Would you live for the moment like when you were young,
And time didn't travel so fast?
Be free in the present, enjoying the now,
Not tied to a future or past.

[Refrain]

[Verse 4]
You probably said all you wanted to say,
But doesn't it strike you as strange
That we'd only begin to start living our lives
If today were the last of all days?

[Coda]
If today were the last of all days, of all days.
