You Can'T Touch Yesterday

Inspired by a quote. Be inspired, y'all. Be inspired by everything and everyone. Life is a miracle. See it. Feel it. Believe it. Because you're part of that miracle too. 

You can't touch yesterday
By Michelle Morris

Life is a miracle
Life is a blessing
See it, feel it, believe it
It's all part of the Universe's lessons 

We're all connected
We're part of it all
Be inspired by the moments
By hope and faith and more

Hold on to the good times
Enjoy the life you have
Put yesterday in a suitcase
Pack it away with memories 

You can't touch yesterday
Yesterday is gone
It's all part of your history
A story in the past

You can't touch yesterday
And yesterday can't touch you
So why do you keep on letting
Yesterday rule your future?

Life is a theatrical one time event
That's created by each moment we have
We string them all together
Memories of beauty and awe

Sometimes there is heartache
Sometimes there is loss
But that makes us appreciate it more
This blessing that we're gifted

We have to enjoy it now
We have to make the most of it
The past is something we can't change
It's what we learn from, and cannot fix

You can't touch yesterday
Yesterday is gone
It's all part of your history
A story in the past

You can't touch yesterday
And yesterday can't touch you
So why do you keep on letting
Yesterday rule your future?

Time to enjoy the moments
Time to make the most of your life
Time to heal your soul
Time to get your future right

You can't touch yesterday
Yesterday is gone
It's all part of your history
A story in the past

You can't touch yesterday
And yesterday can't touch you
Embrace your precious life
So you can have a blessed future
