I got caught up in a world Where people weren't real Where all the deep emotions I should feel Were only very briefly spoken of They just imagined love Through a thousand yesterdays I tossed my life away I can't relive the days I've done But I can change what's yet to come I'll start now I have today You've showed me, Lord What I could never find Could never focus into view How that real love that lingered on my mind Was always waiting there in you I decided I should end This life of just pretend Where no one ever really was my friend And helping hands were only spoken of They just imagined love Through a thousand yesterdays I tossed my life away Now, Lord you've made my whole life new And I can change because of you I'll start now I have today I'll start now I have today
