Frank Cappello wrote "For you (Not Today)" to replace a Coldplay song that was too expensive for his low budget film He was a Quiet Man. The song is about a man down on his luck who meets a woman that in one day makes everything feel right. "For You" was one of the last tracks played during the movie at the part that we all love: when the guy finally gets the girl. I guess you could say I'm a sucker for acoustic tunes.
For You by Frank Cappello lyrics
Inside, outside, make up your mind. Put on your face and close the door. Step out of your mind. Not another day. This one is here to stay. Not another sigh. You can kiss those blues of yours goodbye and I said Some days may fade, I won't let this one fade. And sometimes rain falls, I won't let it fall. And some things are bound to change. They won't change that way. And sometimes, there will be pain. There won't be any pain. Not today. Not this day, this one's all for you. Not this day, not today this one's all for you. This is your day, it's your day, this one's all for you, it's all for you. This is your day, it's your day, this one's all for you. It's all for you. For you. It's all for you. For you.
And I said, some days may fade. I won't let this one fade. Not today.
