When I was little, I went through a period where I was terrified my mom was going to die. It was probably the first time I understood what death meant. I can still remember crying in her arms, asking if she would live forever. I remember seeing tears in her eyes, but I don’t remember what she said.
Years later, my greatest childhood fear came true. My mom died of cancer when I was 20. She was only in her early 40s. My sister and I had just grown up, and she was finally at the point in her life where she was going to start doing all the things she’d dreamed about—traveling, seeing Europe, experiencing more of the world. She never got the chance.
For a long time, I told myself I would do those things for her. I did make it to Europe, I left my hometown, and I’ve been fortunate to have a life filled with love and opportunity. But somewhere along the way, I also realized how easy it is to keep putting life off until “someday.” Suddenly years have passed, and you find yourself wondering why you waited so long.
This song isn’t really about regret. It’s about remembering that the life we’re waiting to live is happening right now. Whether it’s taking the trip, making the change, calling someone you love, or simply choosing a different path, there’s no perfect moment.
There’s no time like today.
[VERSE 1]
Long ago, before she died
I asked my mother as I cried
“Will you live as long as I”
As a tear appeared in her blue eyes
As I’ve grown and life’s gone by
I often sit and wonder why
I didn’t find a better way
To fill my only given days
[CHORUS]
There’s no time like today
To just stand up and walk away
Don’t just let the years go by
Before you have to say goodbye
[VERSE 2]
Most times I can’t remember
What I did last November
And as I sit and watch the screen
I think of all the things unseen
I haven’t seen the northern lights
Or many European sites
I think of all the days I wasted
And all the foreign food untasted
[CHORUS]
There’s no time like today
To just stand up and walk away
Don’t just let the years go by
Before you have to say goodbye
[BRIDGE]
One more road
One more dawn
One more chance
Before it’s gone
[CHORUS]
There’s no time like today
To just stand up and walk away
Don’t just let the years go by
Before you have to say goodbye
