A Thought for Today
Keep the smiles coming, even as the year runs out.
FROM the¨BOOKS
THE WORD BEFORE GOOD-BYE
What is the
springtime after all ?
Only the other side of fall.
Oh, if I could have
I'd have made you a sunny sky.
Hello's the word before good-bye.
Sometimes it rains, sometimes it shines
yet the things I want are seldom mine.
How much of Summer can we hold
before we turn and find we're old ?
The things our mirrors tell us are all lies
Hello's the word before good-bye.
Sometimes it's dark, sometimes it's fair
yet when I go home at night
nobody's there.
Perhaps the next wind that blows in
will bring you back to me again.
Till then remembering just makes me what to cry,
Hello's the word before good-bye.
Sometimes you loose, sometimes you win
yet I can't forget what might have been.
- from the album "Seasons in the Sun" Vol. 1, 1967
