Embrace Not the Blues of Yesterday - Chapter 4

I don’t wanna shed you bad news So, here’s some good news – I refuse to embrace The face of shame… I muse about my upcoming race Receiving unexpected fame Embrace not the blues of yesterday Embrace not me…embrace me not… x2 I don’t wanna be rooted to the spot and rot Embrace me not, sorrow of yesterday’s tomorrow… Embrace not me…embrace me not…x2 Or you’ll be doused in dismay or worse – you’ll have eternal sorrow I want the reds, the yellows and the oranges to stay Stay with me, greens, violets and blues and maybe gray Embrace not the blues of yesterday Come stay, sundrenched day I sway with the blessed breeze My mind, soul and heart is at ease Embrace not me…embrace me not… x2 I don’t wanna be rooted to the spot and rot Embrace me not, sorrow of yesterday’s tomorrow… Embrace not me…embrace me not…x2 When I spin around, You are there I was lost, but now I am found We have our share Of love this blessed night I close my eyes to rest I don’t wanna lose this race My heart pounds vigorously – how can I pass this test?
