don't hold out
don't hold out for happy-ever-after
there is no promise of a further breath
yield to sorrow, love and every laughter
for soon enough we pay the piper Death
rise to meet the day with heart excited
there is no promise of a further breath.
like a child be free of guile, delighted
whatever should present possesses worth
rise to meet the day with heart excited
since nothing lasts forever on this earth
gratitude is proper compensation
whatever should present possesses worth.
give a place to senseless jubilation
commit to feeling deeply come what may
gratitude is proper compensation
surrender to the whim brought by the day
yield to sorrow, love and every laughter
commit to feeling deeply come what may
don't hold out for happy-ever-after
