Laughter

You try and keep on telling me
Something I do not know
That everything in life
Is not all one big joke

You seem to always say
That humor has its place
But in every circumstance
That's not always the case

You don't seem to understand
How humor fits the plan
If laughter was not my only sound
The smile on this clown would eventually break down

It's the only way I really know
It's all or nothing when going for broke
My boat would hit rock bottom
If this river of laughter ever lost its flow

Because life these days can be blistering
If you cry instead of trying to sing
And nothing makes the heart sing more
Than a good daily dose of laughter

So I'll continue to laugh at the days
As I giggle bad feelings away
You may not but this I know
Though every thing in life is not a joke
It's the only way I find I can cope
