What is it your heart desires To forget sadness be inspired To see silver lining in dark cloud Perfect timing for happiness now Leave the past behind You are going a new way Life can be designed If you think and pray Use the old blues That came from strife To create a better view A more full filled life Abandon salty blue tears No longer need their service Forget your fuchsia fears Live happy on purpose Life gives you cards So play your hand Love twice as hard Make your life grand
