Till the Good Times Come Around

They always lift our spirits whenever they pass by. Sometimes a troubled mind recalls the when, the where and why of times we've had together -- Through all our ups and downs. We always have the time to wait Till the good times come around When love seems so uncertain -- When everything goes wrong -- When nothing seems to ease the pain That sometimes comes along, We know that time will bring us A smile, and not a frown, To see us through the bitter times -- Till the good times come around. The footsteps of the good times -- Follow us around. They always seem to come along When we are really down. That's how it is between us -- When things turn upside down -- We just slow down and wait awhile Till the good times come around

Good verses, Jake. In my opinion they are better quality than many I have read. By that I mean that I like the older rhyme, meter, and rhythm, and this one is exceptional. Have a blessed day!
