One of the Best Days Ever
Melancholy is a word to describe a mood
That humans sometimes experience
It often happens after a happy encounter
A challenge to your resilience
A feeling of depression is really what it is
After riding such an emotional high
Most of the time we rebound quite quickly
But sometimes it lingers for a while
Time is a healer in the majority of cases
There's no need to fret or to worry
In no time at all you'll be back on track
Continuing along on life's journey
Melancholy is usually just a state of mind
But if left untreated it can fester
It can turn into an illness much more serious
Don't succumb to the pressure
Wake up each morn with a big broad smile
Laugh at the world and shout
Today's gonna be one of the best days ever
Now that's what I'm talking about!
