"Like The Seasons"
“Like The Seasons”
Like the seasons life is change
like all memories of the past
death can only rearrange
what our winter time has passed
waiting around just don’t get it
wait too long and you’ll regret it
living is such a wondrous game
because each day is not the same
Like the storms that we must weather
also like our sunny days
they mean nothing if not together
to share the knowledge of their ways
lying around just don’t get it
lie too long and you’ll regret it
living is such a wondrous game
because each life is not the same
Your smiles make life a sunny summer
your frowns can make the rains come down
thoughts of winter are a bummer
joyful thoughts bring spring around
crying around just don’t get it
cry too much and you’ll regret it
loving is such a wondrous game
because each love is not the same
Like the springtime, summer, and fall
people each must have their day
just as winter’s a part of all
each must live in their own way
playing around just don’t get it
play too much and you’ll regret it
living is such a wondrous game
because each year is not the same
Like the seasons men must change
learn from memories of the past
only death will never change
the rest of life can never last
waiting around just don’t get it
wait too long and you’ll regret it
living is such a wondrous thing
if you see the joys it brings.
