Cover art for Today lyrics by Jefferson Airplane

People normally come here to look for meaning of songs. But I don’t think loads of people give a dam about this old rock and roll track forgotten with time it seems. It saddens me to see no one has pasted comments on such a beautiful song. Now this is what it means to me. This guy who has written it is in love with someone he can’t really somehow go out with. And he wishes that today would be the day that he can shout it out let her know how much he cares for and what he can do for her to start with. The nice part is the irony in it. He says it as if it’s today that he has realized how much he gives a fuck….
But actually he is wishing that today be the day that she sees how he feels about her in his eyes. He wishes there is a mutual understanding between them without the need of words. And ones that she understands it he shows her the other dimensions of him self and do all he can for her.
