The Best Things In Life Are Free

Don't be depressed When you open your wallet Or stick calloused hands Into empty pockets Where the lap that you have Is not luxury Don't worry, The best things in life are free From the smile of a child To the holding of hands Or when a friend gives Words of encouragement When someone you know Says something nice And you see that they mean it By the look in their eyes That soft warming glow When you know you're in love When that someone you love Says you're more than enough When the sun comes around To another new day Giving another chance To get it all straight So don't be depressed When you open your wallet Or stick calloused hands Into empty pockets Where the lap that you have Is not luxury Don't worry, The best things in life are free
