about

While it sounds a bit dark, this is one of the more positive songs in my catalog.

lyrics

As days go by, you clear your eyes, it’s not as bad as it was
The shock is gone, and you slowly move on, it’s what time always does

When bad things start to happen, you don’t know how you’ll make it through
But bad things always happen, right on cue

Around and around
So many ups and so many downs
The longer we go the more we know
That the good times don’t ever last
Yet I always let
Myself forget
The bad days lift away too

When you’ve been burned, you start to learn, to doubt a brighter phase
Always surprised, by the lows and the highs, when neither ever stays

When bad things start to happen the good things seemed too good to be true
Bad things always happen, it’s nothing old or new

Around and around
So many ups and so many downs
The farther we go the more we know
That the good times don’t ever last
Yet I always let
Myself forget
The bad days lift away too
