Carolyn Arends - Seize The Day Lyrics

Send "Seize The Day" ringtone to your cell

I know a girl who was schooled in Manhattan

She reads dusty books and learns phrases in Latin

She is an author, or maybe a poet

A genius, but it's just this world doesn't know it

She works on her novel most everyday

If you laugh she will say

Chorus:

Seize the day - seize whatever you can

`Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand

Seize the day - pray for grace from God's hand

Then nothing will stand in your way

Seize the day

Well I know a doctor, a fine young physician

Left his six figure job for a mission position

He's healing the sick in an African clinic

He works in the dirt and writes home to the cynics

He says, "We work through the night so most everyday

As we watch the sun rise we can say....

Chorus

I know a man who's been doing some thinking

He's as bitter and cold as the whiskey he's drinking

He's talking `bout fear, about chances not taken

If you listen to him you can hear his heart breaking

He says, "One day you're a boy and the next day you're dead

I wish way back when someone had said....

Chorus

Well one thing I've noticed wherever I wander

Everyone's got a dream he can follow or squander

You can do what you will with the days you are given

I'm trying to spend mine on the business of living

So I'm singing my songs off of any old stage

You can laugh if you want - I'll still say....

Chorus
