Hooked On Life
I see the worry in your eyes,
That frown upon your brow,
The questions forming o your lips.
But there is no need to worry,
I'll never lose that twinkle in my eye,
The ability to try
And try again.
Because lady I'm hooked on life
And if you are hooked on life,
You don't have much time to feel sorry for yourself,
You are too busy living your life
And feeling it,
With all its ups and downs,
It's good and bad times,
It's sadness and joy
And it's loneliness.
Look, into my eyes and you will see
That sparkle in my eye,
That can't and won't stop shining
And the exuberance that I give
To the things that I do.
If I am sometimes feeling sad or lonely
Don't feel bad,
Because a frown can always be turned around
If a person has love in their heart
And is hooked on life.
Turn your frown around
And be glad not sad for me,
Because I will always be trying
And will never give up on the game of life.
