The girl who lived in yesterday

Now wishes time had never strayed.

"Don't lie" is what she was always told,

she'll remember that 'til she grows old.

The girl who is making the most of today

Is always busy, has no time to play.

Priorities are all she knows;

School is causing her plenty of woes.

Then there's the girl who hopes for the future,

Powered by all who've had so much to teach her.

She's excited to see what tomorrow will bring:

First, college, then grad school; a diamond ring?

The wises, the hopes, and the most of today:

These all come together in one special way.

This girl takes her days one at time;

So far, it's working out just fine.
