The Morning of Our Lives
|
|
It hurts me to hear, to see you got no faith in yourself.
|
It bothers me now to watch you, you got no faith in your own self.
|
You listen more to your friends than to your own heart inside.
|
Well, you listen to them, oh but you hide.
|
You don't got nothin' to be afraid of.
|
You're not as bad as you think.
|
And you're always puttin' yourself down,
|
But I'm just gonna tell you that I like you.
|
Darling, you always put yourself down, but I like you.
|
That's all I came to say.
|
Then there's no need to think that other people can do things better than you can do 'em
|
'Cause you got the same power in you.
|
I got faith in you. Sometimes you don't have it in yourself,
|
But I got faith in you.
|
|
And our time is right now, now we can do anything we really want to.
|
Our time is now, here in the morning of our lives.
|
|
And it ain't just me who thinks so, dear, I asked my friends.
|
Now, Leroy and Asa and D. Sharpe,
|
Tell her not to be afraid.
|
Tell her it's okay.
|
Tell her it's all right.
|
|
And our time is now, we can do anything we really believe in.
|
Our time is now, here in the morning of our lives.
|
|
Dear, I asked Leroy and Asa and D. Sharpe, and they said,
|
Don't you love her too?
|
Then tell her she's okay.
|
Tell her she's all right.
|
You're okay, dear. There's nothing to feel inferior about. You can do it.
|
And our time is now, we can do anything you really believe in.
|
I know it.
|
Our time is now, here in the morning of our lives.
|
Our time is right now, you can do anything you set your heart on.
|
Our time is now, here in the morning of our lives.
|
|
We're young now. Right now's when we can enjoy it.
|
Now's the time for us to have faith in what we can do.
|
No need to fear, cause now's the time to have faith in what we can do.
|
