So life is tough, what else is new
No reason to despair
There's not a human on this earth who doesn't get his share
Now you can dwell on all your ills,
feel sorry and blue,
and only see the gloomy side
in everything you do
But don't you know you have a lot to be so happy for ?
Just look at those who have it worse,
and see the good side more.
Do you have eyes ?
Why don't you see ?
the beauty all around.
A loved one's face, a flower, a smile,
First snowflakes on the ground
Do you have ears ?
Then listen good to music in the air
Hear children laugh, and birds sing out,
and voices everywhere
Do you have legs ?
Then take a walk, and feel how free you are
and so muck happier then some,
who cannot move that far
There's always someone in this world,
who's much worse off than you
So don't count what you haven't got,
let what you have come through
Look at the good side of life,
no matter just how small,
Appreciate all that you have,
and make the most of it all.
