I woke up with a song in my heart,

It felt like I had a new start.

I could have taken to heart,

The little things that hurt.

The disappointments, hours in traffic, sickness, bills

All these ills.

I woke up with a song in my heart,

It had no rhyme

I had no time.

It had no melody,

But carried a tune.

I woke up with a song in my heart,

So I filled the beats with words.

I wrote them down, even as I looked like a clown.

I wrote them down

And one by one, the words rang true,

The sun rises on every soul,

The sun sets on every soul,

What you do in between fills your soul.
