Every morning I see the dawn's light
Some times hesitant, others boldly bright
And I know life's cycle's rolling again
From flu to joy and back to pain
From mist to sun and back to rain
From glad to glum, silence to hum
From footpath to river, from stream to lane
From numb to singing, from singing to dumb
And lastly we turn from day to night
Jumping the hurdles, doing our best
Life's a relay race, as we pass each test
Sure that tomorrow will bring us daylight
We know that one day we won't go on
We've done lots of right and hid lots of wrong
Some times we were silent, others sang a song
Without us the world will still go on, and on..
Each day, somewhere, a nobody dies
But each day a cute baby opens its eyes
The sun doesn't stare, like a shrug, it's there
The sun doesn't care if you washed your hair
Our life's a pearl necklace, if we want to share it
Recording each day, so others can wear it
And after we've gone, children carry on
Like a circular train, trundling on.
