Today

1995. Discovered that John Denver’s song is perfect for my complete coming out to the world.

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I’ll taste your strawberries; I’ll drink your sweet wine.
A million tomorrows shall all pass away, ‘ere I forget all the joy that is mine today.

I’ll be a dandy and I’ll be a rover; you’ll know who I am by the songs that I sing.
I’ll feast at your table, I’ll sleep in your clover; who cares what tomorrow will bring?

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I’ll taste your strawberries; I’ll drink your sweet wine.
A million tomorrows shall all pass away, ‘ere I forget all the joy that is mine today.

I can’t be contented with yesterday’s glory; I can’t live on promises winter to spring.
Today is my moment, and now is my story; I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing.

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I’ll taste your strawberries; I’ll drink your sweet wine.
A million tomorrows shall all pass away, ‘ere I forget all the joy that is mine today.

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I’ll taste your strawberries; I’ll drink your sweet wine.
A million tomorrows shall all pass away, ‘ere I forget all the joy that is mine today.
