Life Please Pull Me Up Again

There's so much stuff going on I am being pushed far down With no chance of my escape My life's not taking the shape I wanted it to be like It packed up and took a hike Now I'm trying to climb back But each day brings a new whack Knocking me down one more peg It's costing me an arm and leg Jut to stay in this tough spot There's not a heck of a lot I can do to get ahead Every night I go to bed Hoping for a better day And troubles will go away Letting me take one step forward So my life starts heading toward Days of dark clouds moving past That's been putting a dark cast Overhead to follow me I just want to be happy With the sun smiling so bright Taking me on a new height Out of this hole I fell into So I can start to continue Step by step little by little I will get a friendly cuddle And fate will be nice to bring A song I can finally sing

My dear Robin? are you the Robin that I met in Iraq? Tomorrow will be better take courage, hold your head up everything is going to just fine. Yes we have all had days like your but it swiftly passes .Look out your window and tell me what you see... Yes there is life and great hope.
