lyrics

It Comes And It Goes
One step at a time,… taking life with care and to plan,
but some things only come around once,…
gotta enjoy em while you can.
Nice to keep your eyes open
as changes happen faster than thought,…
like children that grow up,
whether you’re there to see it or not.
There’s a brief special window; a chance
to see it open and close,…
as the fleeting transformation evolves,…
It comes and it goes.

Always in a state of unhappiness;
your situation and hopeless fate,…
forlorn with your own appearance,
and your meager financial state.
Always thinking that tomorrow,
life will get better than this day you’ve got,
till you look back and realize,
things were not as bad then as you thought.
It’s all a matter of perspective
to a future that nobody knows,…
this journey;
this place marker in your life,…
It comes and it goes.

Sometimes there’s a defining moment
put before us to step up and to carry it through,
and we either rise to the occasion
or we regret what we didn’t do.
Whether we failed or succeeded,
either way we’re prone to learn then,
reminds us on how we will act
if and when the situation comes around again.
Our lives are shaped and reshaped,
dealing with the many highs and lows,…
as we press on through the slipstream of time,…
It comes and it goes.
