Seize The Day Lyrics - Ellis Paul

She comes to my bed like a whisper 

Slips in the sheet like a ghost 

Says to my ear "hey mister, 

You need to take this girl to the coast 

I need to kick my feet up in the ocean 

Feel the taste of salt sea spray 

Baby let's live in the moment 

Cause it feels like life is taking the moment away 

Let's seize the day, seize the day, seize the day" 

In the kitchen in the morning 

She poured coffee in my favorite cup 

She's been dancing on the linoleum-- bare foot 

The squeaking nearly woke me up 

She put tom jones on the stereo 

- now that I could do without 

Ah, but who needs perfection? 

I like the tension when there's room for doubt 

Seize the day, seize the day, seize the day 

Seize the day, seize the day, seize the day 

She brought some pens, a couple of notebooks 

A postcard, a blanket, a bottle of merlot 

And the sky provided the sunset 

Me - I brought the music of nat king cole. 

"and I'd come back as a sea-gull," I said, 

"if in the next life they'd give you the choice..." 

"i'd come back with you--we could go flying," 

She said, " you'd hear me raise my voice, to 

Seize the day, seize the day, seize the day 

Seize the day, seize the day, seize the day"
