If
Our lives change in ways we can’t know.
What was last year is a fading memory of today.
So don’t be afraid that things will never change.
There’s a new life, if you want it, down the way.

You’re heartbroken and feeling all alone.
You talk of doom and gloom and being wronged.
Don’t be afraid that things will never change.
There’s a new life, if you speak it, down the way.

So you think happiness is just for someone else.
And that the wonders of life elude your path.
Don’t be afraid that things will never change.
There’s a new life, if you believe it, down the way.
