Today Lyrics

(lyrics by James Seals; music by James Seals & Dash Crofts, 1971)
From the albums down home (1970), seals and crofts I and ii (1974) and
Today (1998, 2000).

Today went so softly, just faded away.
Like the rain in the springtime.
On that day, I met you. I met you, when I met you.

Today went so quietly, I turned and it was gone.
Like you, like me, it was lonely.
It went on, it went on, it went on, it went on.

Then a beautiful thing happened, and we were one.
And all the world was a beautiful face to be lost in.

Today went so quickly, just a moment in time.
Like the hours in springtime.
When you were mine, you were mine, you were mine, you were mine.

Then a beautiful thing happened, and we were one.
And all the world was a beautiful face to be lost in.
Today! Today!
