John Denver Today. It was my good fortune to be in the right place at the right time this morning to capture the perfect sunrise. I was watching the skyline changing from pink to yellow from my dining room window and shot a few pics of it and as I was turning away I caught a glimpse of the sun as it began to rise over the sea. Apart from a small glitch at the begining of the video when I knocked over the camera ( over excited ) the video is very stil as I used a tripod. I didn't mute it as I felt the natural sounds ( a dog barking , a bird singing and traffic (ugh) in the distance added to it. Welcome to my morning!!! Lyrics.....


Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today



Ill be a dandy, and Ill be a rover
Youll know who I am by the songs that I sing
Ill feast at your table, Ill sleep in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow shall bring


Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today



I cant be contented with yesterdays glory
I cant live on promises winter to spring
Today is my moment, now is my story
Ill laugh and Ill cry and Ill sing


Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today


Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today

  • Such a nice idea to film the sunrise. I love this song. Thanks.

  • @DuchessXzena I grew up in the Philipines in the late 60's and early 70's and heard this song always sang by the Boy Scouts. I thought this was a Scouting song until I learned this was sang by the Christy and later by John Denver. I wonder if any Boy Scout historian could tell how this song become such a favorites for Campers in the 70's.

  • i think that your video is an awesome partner to this song. a while back, my sweet ex and i spent an afternoon going over john denver songs because she'd heard one that she wanted for a wedding song. this one has been a favorite of mine since the first time i heard it years ago. it ended up that this wasn't the one she had in mind but i love it even more having sat here with her listening to it. the one she was thinking of is my sweet lady... she went her own way since. i love her even more now

  • You made my morning.

  • I've loved this song my whole life.

    stunning sunrise accompaniment, from that 'other ocean'... although, it's all connected, see..

    thank you for sharing your beautiful morning.

  • I wish this song had been sung at our Confirmation ceremony at our Church. It would have fit the occasion perfectly.
