After Today

Who would have thought that one little kiss
Soft and sweet from the lips of a lovely girl
Would change my life?
But by my life, it will

After today, nothing will be the same again
After today, I'll make my claim to fame and then
The grass will be greener
And the air will be cleaner
And my life be serener
Than Heaven knows when
Heaven knows when

After today, I shall have bid my fears goodbye
After today, I shall have no more tears to cry
And I'll learn to live with laughter to stay
After today

After today, nothing will be the way it was
After today, I'll say, "Oh, what a day it was"
My heart will be lighter
And my smile will be brighter
And I'll be twice the fighter
Than ever I was
Clever because

After today, I shall have bid my fears farewell
After today, I shall have no more tears to quell
And I'll learn to live with laughter to stay

After the tears comes the laughter
After today
After today
After today
After today
