today will give me something
or take it away
without a spoken word to say
cause me to crack a smile
or turn it upside down
shower me with love
take me on a merry -go -round
flat out lie to me
cry to me for sympathy
crown me as Queen
steal from me my dreams
fail me so I can try
over and over again
teach me how to respect myself
create a way for me to sin
let me see my mistakes
bring me wealth or ultimate health
surprise me with a tragedy
find a way to get rid of me
I pray and live on the wings
of a prayer
I may guess what today may bring
but today already knows what's there
