MAYBE JUST MAYBE
Hopefully, all the hardships will end. Actually all hardships will end
I know that it will get better, that the situation will change
That the morning will be brighter, but sometimes
I need to gather and pick myself up
Because the load that life throws at me can get a little heavy
And make me lose balance
Maybe! if life was a little easier, then we would all be little happier
And who knows, wine would be a little expensive
And money would be a little more common, don't you thik?
So while the world keeps on spinning
Shoes get more expensive and people more confusing
I'll keep on staring at the leaves falling from the tree
Smile at the children playing in the sun
And gaze at the sunset that brings the night stars after it
Maybe we'll be fine, maybe we'll be okay and maybe not
Maybe just maybe
