today

David Gilmour

If you should wake and find me gone
Keep safe this night and dwell upon
Such murmurations, sun sunk deep
Now close your eyes and go to sleep

What a day it's been a day of shoot the breezing
What a day it's been this time of year
Just a day when the weight of the world slides away

Feel that sun on your back see the shadows falling
Sea meets shore and soothes it with a song
If this should be my last day on earth
I'll sing along

Let's forget all the skies cast over and grey
And the squalling tempests of doubt
Holding on clinging tight in the wreckage of love
But today

What a time to dream what a day of easy
What a day it's been this time of year
Just a day when the weight of the world slides away

Evening Star, a guitar in the smoke of the fire
Light of gold in the garden of old
I would take it all again, if it came my way
But today
