Be Strong

The sun will shine again, let me wipe away your tears
The sun will shine again, they will come the better years
The sun will shine again, clouds won’t always be overhead
The sun will shine again, fog will go and clear your head

The future lies before you, focus on coming days (be strong)
Turn the page on yesterdays (be strong)
Walk in new circles, discover new emotions (be strong)
Make new friends, discover new passions

The sun will shine again, the sky will be bright blue
The sun will shine again, don’t be sad don’t be blue
The sun will shine again, go that extra mile
The sun will shine again, your heart will learn to smile

Become your own best friend (be strong)
Be true to yourself till the end (be strong)
You’ll never be let down
