Got Today Lyrics by Mitch James

Mitch James

2018

[Verse 1]
Huddle 'round a frozen fire
Our eyes dilate, we tempted fate again
And we've been talking shit for hours
On wooden crates, another day would end

[Pre-Chorus]
When growing up they don't tell you
All the things that you can do
Had to find it out for myself

[Chorus]
These times will slip away
Falling through the breaks
How much can ya take
Before you lose yourself in the world?
Well, I'm wishing right now
It would come back around
But you know that we only got today

[Verse 2]
Well, we used to be so wild
The drinking games, we'd waste the day away
Running 'round like it's a riot
We looked insane, it's fun and games

[Pre-Chorus]
Until you grow up and they tell you
All the things that you can't do
Had to find it out for myself

[Chorus]
These times will slip away
Falling through the breaks
How much can ya take
Before you lose yourself in the world?
Well, I'm wishing right now
It would come back around
But you know that we only got today

[Bridge]
I miss the days the Dunedin faces
The people made me who I am
I wouldn't change it, I wouldn't trade it
No, nothing made us give up then

[Chorus]
These times will slip away
Falling through the breaks
How much can you take
Before we lose ourselves?
And I know, I'm wishing right now
It would come back around
But you know that we only...
These times will slip away
Falling through the breaks
How much can you take
Before we lose ourselves in the world?
Well, I'm wishing right now
It would come back around
But you know that we only got today
