lyrics

Well my heart is heavy but I won't let it bring me down
I'm gonna lay everything back out there in hopes it will be found again
And surround myself with everyone I love
And actually live the life I always hear that everyone's been dreaming of
For I have discovered my smile

It's in every tree that's blowing in the wind while all the squirrels
play hide'n'seek
Stopping to smell the bakery walking home from work
And getting a great night's sleep
It's a whole new world when you're looking through thankful eyes
Where every moment is a treasure and every day to come a wonderful surprise
Cuz I've finally shut my closed mind
Oh and boy do I feel alive

And all the oppressors in all the universe will never even come close
to breaking my pride

And the only thing that will ever stand in your way
Is your own mind trying to hide what's right there in front of you

And a wise man spoke of true happiness coming from within your soul

He said take your cup and fill it up with love
It's everywhere

And when it's full, raise it high, and sing it with me
Boy, I feel alive
