Everyone's life is bittersweet
|
It's a door that opens wide
|
And no man can call himself complete
|
'Til he's seen it from both sides
|
|
This door swings both ways
|
It's marked 'in' and 'out'
|
Some days you'll want to cry
|
And some days you will shout
|
|
This door swings both ways
|
It goes back and forth
|
In comes a southern breeze
|
Or a cold wind from the north
|
|
This door swings both ways
|
Lets in joy and pain
|
In comes the morning sun
|
And then the evening rain
|
|
This door swings both ways
|
Lets in dark and light
|
Every day you make the choice
|
To let in wrong or right
|
|
When shadows fall
|
You must prepare yourself for sunshine
|
For everything there is an end
|
And so my friend you must be brave
|
|
This door swings both ways
|
Which one will it be?
|
Will we live in happiness
|
Or dwell in misery?
|
|
This door swings both ways
|
Lets in earth and sky
|
Make the most of livin'
|
If you're not prepared to die
|
Make the most of livin'
|
If you're not prepared to die
|
