Can We

Can we try to take the high road? Without stepping off the edge. Can we learn what we were told? Without jumping off the ledge. Can you try to see it my way? You shall see just who you are. Can we wish for a better day? And then see a shooting star. Can I see you inside my mind? We soon do realize That we know what we shall find The sorrow in your eyes. Can we try to take the high road? Because I can see a far Can we all buy back our souls? The devil let the door agar. Can we see into the future? To see what we might get. Can we see we need a suture? The wounds not healed yet. Can we try to see things my way? And forget of the past. Can we just have a good day? And try to make it last. Can the sun return tomorrow Chase away the rain. Can we forget about the sorrow? And leave behind the pain.
