Living for today is part of living for tomorrow
For tomorrow's something we all have to find
It's black on black at midnight so your faith must be your guidelight
To erase the fear of darkness from your mind

You've got to pave your way into tomorrow
You've got to live and let your brother live as well
You've got to pave your way into tomorrow
And let your love of living cast its spell

Now gentle raindrops falling feed the streams that keep on growing
Till they build the raging river deep and wide
Now life is one big river, so if each man is a giver
We might help to keep the ocean satisfied

You've got to pave your way into tomorrow
You've got to live and let your brother live as well
You've got to pave your way into tomorrow
And let your love of living cast its spell

You've got to pave your way into tomorrow...
