Maybe I was too close too it
So I couldn’t see
Now I see that everything I want
Is right in front of me, and I know
There’s nothing better that I could do Than hang out with you
You are the light of my life
I threw away all I knew
Found my own point of view
There’s no doubt we’ll make it through
Every time, and I know why
Levity, you’ll see
Nothing happens when you want it to
Not the way you want it to
But what you get will have to do
To make it through
It takes a lot to be strong
When you can’t get along
If you don’t take the time to find
Something that makes you happy
You’ll be unhappy for all of your life
But now we don’t have to try
