LYRICS
A mid-life fantasy
Only crisis I see
Is happening to someone…
Younger than me
No need for money
’cause there’s…
No need for a honey
Instead of a fortune going to waste
Going to give real living a taste
(giving into living
participate in give and take)

Fathom the quality
When all you’ve got is quantity
A whole other ditty
About giving pity
This is to be the situation:
A celebration of appreciation

LYRICS
Jump up! Leap forward
Jump up! Leap toward
Jump up! Leap forward
Leaping forward toward tomorrow
Yesterday keeps creepin’ in

Jump up! Leap forward
Jump up! Leap toward
Jump up! Leap forward
Leaping forward toward tomorrow
While we have today to play, hey!

Jump up! Leap forward
Jump up! Leap toward
Jump up! Leap forward
Running headlong toward tomorrow
Yesterday comes near, again

LYRICS
I’m living a dream
One with a light beam

When sleeping I’m dreaming
That I’m living
A dream
When awake I don’t forsake
The dream
I’m living

Life will pick up steam
When you realize your dream
Believe in what you can do
And, you will, too

LYRICS
How bad do you want it?
How hard will you strive to thrive?
Are you even alive?
Is it your spirit you’re gonna deprive?

Spending every day as though it’s your last
Is the best way to pass to the past
Filling everybody with “know” and you’ll last
As long as there’s memories to grasp

An oral tradition of endless relation revelation

LYRICS
There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got
You’re better off having one than not
There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got

There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got
No sense living life like a robot
Live the life that you’ve got

You might think you’ll be sailing your big yacht
… make it through the venture, not!
Coming to know the intricacies
Of the human life expectancy

There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got
You’re better off having one than not
There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got

When you wake up or if you do not
Maybe you will give a shout about
Life is more than just you

Why don’t you put yourself out there for others
How come, “Why not?”
’cause here ain’t no life like the one you’ve got

LYRICS
Even though I can’t see
I know you’re standing right next to me
Even though I can’t see
I know you’re standing right next to me

All you have to do is believe
All I have to do is believe in you

Your everlasting light shines

Your omniscient is omnipresent

Though I can’t see
I know that you believe in me
And, I believe in you, too
