You Must Love More Than Yesterday

How you cope, friend...
being sad?
Hours don't pass that quickly:
you will be so bored!

Try very hard, 
and win it all;
yes, they will admire you...
you will know for sure!
You must love more than yesterday, 
you will know for sure!
How you deal with pain,
how you sleep alone?
How dreams slip from you?
They are inside you!

Be ready to love,
receive much more,
even though nobody gives;
you must love more than yesterday,
they are smiling now! 
You must love more than yesterday,
they are smiling now!    

Be strong and believe...
be glad, too!
No one is against you...
everything can be yours today!

Run, to reach love...
whenever you fall,
it will not leave you;
you're on safe shore!
You must love more than yesterday,
they all love you now!
You must love more than yesterday,
they all love you now!
