If I Died Today

Words and music ©1983 by Dave Caruso

All the bad that's happened to me so far
Could be held in a jar in the cupboard
But every sour apple that comes my way
Is so hard to tell from the other

If I could take tomorrow and make it mine
I can't think of a thing to make over
Cause the worst thing that could happen is losing you
And the best, I'd say
If I died today
Is just being so good to each other

One life can only be good or bad
If that's how it must be, then so be it
And if you want to know how to look at life
That depends on how you want to see it

If I'm awake when it's time to go
I will try not to make it an issue
And if I'm sleeping when my turn comes
Put your hand in mine
Just one more time
And please wake me long enough just to kiss you
