"Gone Tomorrow (Here Today)" lyrics

A child held up in the sky
To sunset youth, we say goodbye
But I won't live with regret
"Carpe diem" is the secret
'Cause it's....

Gone tomorrow, here today
I ain't gonna waste it
I ain't gonna waste it
No, it's gone tomorrow
But it's here today
I won't let it slip away

I feel the rush it's kicking in
And I wish this night would never end
We're never coming back around
Like shooting stars, we're burning out
It's...

Gone tomorrow, here today
I ain't gonna waste it
I ain't gonna waste it
No, it's gone tomorrow
But it's here today
I won't let it slip away

I wanna feel, wanna touch the light
I look around for the friends that have gone and I'm
Reminded that it's all just a fantasy
But we get to choose what we wanna believe
And I wanna believe that there's something more
Another level to the dream, right through the door
But right now's for real and it's fading fast
Better live 'cause we're never gonna get it back

It's...
Gone tomorrow, here today
I said, it's gone tomorrow but it's here today
I won't let it slip away
Won't let it slip away
Won't let it slip away
Won't let it slip away
Won't let it slip away
