Love the Ones Who Love You

When I was a kid I thought everyone had life figured out Now many years have past Since banana seats and Betz And I don't know which tomorrow is next But I'm not alone And your not alone Everyone seems lost Unhappy, tired and tossed- Around, we'll find a way To keep lining up the days Into weeks and years that make sense And make us happy not depressed Spring to summer to fall To winter on and on, on and on Seeds to sprouts open to Growing flowers to picked vases in sad places Streams give their water to evaporation Clouds falling back to earth one drop at a time When you are so little everything seems perfect Nothing keeps you awake when you should be sleeping Answers are as common as flowers leaves and mountains Counting years in half points, can't wait for the next choice Gonna be a space man, flying through the thin air Helping every lost pet, be the worlds best vet Answers are so easy, just ask a million questions Stay up thinking all night, still up at the first light Only can the next day out do the fun of today Showing off the new shoes when you get to school Judging left for court rooms, watching for the new blooms Organize the rocks found, free treasures abound Someday it all gets blurry, overwhelmed with worry It's harder to be happy, hard to be relaxing Even more then ever, you need your people up close Rather feel settled then buy a bunch of pedals Turn never into always, forget about your follies No one is perfect, unfair to expect Beauty's on the inside, make the worlds best life Love the ones who love you, nothing else can save you Love the ones who love you, they really need you Love the ones who love you, nothing else can save you Love the ones who love you, look past the hurt and problems Love the ones who love you, enjoy the life that follows
