[Lyrics] Today, I feel like pleasing you More than before Today, I know what I want to do But I don't know what for To be living for you Is all I want to do To be loving you It'll all be there When my dreams come true Today, you'll make me say That I somehow have changed Today, you'll look into my eyes I'm just not the same To be any more than all I am Would be a lie I'm so full of love I could burst apart And start to cry Today, everything you want I swear it all will come true Today, I realize how much I'm in love with you With you standing here I could tell the world What it means to love To go on from here I can't use words They don't say enough Please, please listen to me It's taken so long to come true It's all for you, all for you ************************************ Duration Legend W - whole; H - half; Q - quarter; E - 8th; S - 16th; a - acciaccatura; + - note tied to previous; . - note dotted; Duration letters will always appear directly above the note/fret number it represents the duration for.
