Life Is Not For Sissies
Touching deep inside
Feeling my way through
Avoiding all false pride
To find what I should do
Open up the skies
Let the rain fall down on me
I’ll catch the drops and stop the cries
Water flowers, swim the sea
Life is not for sissies
I’ll trust the voice within
Get up off my knees
Bow my head and win
