I'Ll Take the Gray Canvas

I'll take the gray canvas and paint it, To make life Shine a hundredfold. Every day I will decorate with a palette. I will weave pearls of rewards in them. I'll go through memory like a rainbow, Paint a black-and-white movie, I'll paint all the tablecloths white, And I'll throw my sadness away. I will erase the gray color from the canvas, Its texture will be thrown out of memory. I'll make a new hundred tomorrow, And can be in orange ornament. I'll paint a mental light bulb To burn them even in the night And they warmed my tender fingers And sent the sad away.
