I came upon the sunlight On a cloudy afternoon in the park She stood there with her eyes wide A little innocent work of art I heard voices all around me But they couldn't break her heavenly spell She said to plunge deeper To find a clearing in the muddied well On again, off again End of day, and begin More hellos than goodbyes Always be willing to try Try Willing to try Another generation Snuck up on me like a bumblebee To pollinate the flowers I took solace in so frequently Suddenly, times are changed Forcing you to rearrange The remnants of a former life Always be willing to try Try Willing to try Willing to try If I stand still here long enough My struggles will blow away with the wind And yes, they may drift on back to me But I know it'll be all right It'll be all right Yes I know it'll be all right She ran out of the sunlight Into the cradle of her mother's arms I held steady to the feeling I knew would keep me safe from harm With reminders all around me I have only to open my heart Allow the complications To be inevitably taken apart On again, off again End of day, and begin More hellos than goodbyes Always be willing to try Try Willing to try Willing to try Willing to try
