Once upon a time, my advice to you would have been go out and find yourself a whore |
|
But I guess I've grown up, because I don't give that kind of advice anymore |

I was 27 when I figured out that blowing my brains out wasn't the answer |
|
So I decided, maybe I should find a way to make this world work out for me |
|
And my good friend Paul was 83 when he told me; that 'To love is to feel pain' |
|
And I thought about that then and I've thought about that again and again |
|

|
'To love is to feel pain' there ain't no way around it |
|
The very nature of love is to grieve when it is over |
|
The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits |
|
Better roll them now before something else goes wrong |
|
Know it's a wonderful world, if you can put aside the sadness |
|
And hang on to every ounce of beauty upon you |
|
Better take the time to know it, |
|
If you feel anything at all |

So if what you have is working for you, or you think that it stands a reasonable chance, and whatever's broken seems fixable and nothing's beyond repair |
|
If you still think about each other and smile before you remember how screwed up it's gotten or maybe still dream of a time less rotten |
|
Remember, it ain't too late to take a deep breath and throw yourself into it with everything you've got |
|
It's great to be alive |
