Taking The Day Lyrics

Like when you realise that you are dreaming
And you go around and you do as you please
This feat isnt as hard for you as you would like to believe

I'll be the first to admit
That i dont have it all figured out as i'd like to just yet
But I know that there's no guarantee
That i'll wake up tomorrow
So today is the very last day
As far as i'm concerned
If im going to hell then i'm going to hell

So lets take the day off work
And do everything that we always wanted
And stay in bed all morning
And hanglide all afternoon
If that's what you want to do

And you will regret today if you don't
Having a day to do what you want Keeps the demons at bay
Working your fingers to the bone
Never did anyone many favours
So care for yourself sometime

Too many thoughts filter throught your brain
You know ther's no guarantee
That tomorrow you'll wake up
So today is the very last day
As far as im concerned
If i'm going to hell then i'm going to hell

So lets take the day of work
And do everything that we always wanted
And stay in bed all morning
And hanglide all afternoon
If that's what you want to do

Like when you realise that you are dreaming 
And you go around and you do as you please 
This feat isnt as hard for you as you would like to believe
 
I'll be the first to admit 
That i dont have it all figured out as i'd like to just yet 
But I know that there's no guarantee 
That i'll wake up tomorrow 
So today is the very last day
As far as i'm concerned 
If im going to hell then i'm going to hell
 
So lets take the day off work 
And do everything that we always wanted
And stay in bed all morning 
And hanglide all afternoon 
If that's what you want to do

And you will regret today if you don't 
Having a day to do what you want Keeps the demons at bay
Working your fingers to the bone 
Never did anyone many favours
So care for yourself sometime

Too many thoughts filter throught your brain
You know ther's no guarantee
That tomorrow you'll wake up 
So today is the very last day 
As far as im concerned
If i'm going to hell then i'm going to hell

So lets take the day of work 
And do everything that we always wanted
And stay in bed all morning 
And hanglide all afternoon 
If that's what you want to do

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

You need to take a littl time out for yourself every now and then and you should live life to the full.
