It's up to you to make yourself a brighter day
You've got a pocket full of dreams
You're on your way
Just look around you
I don't even care what wise men say
I'm used to doing things my own way
Never read the book "Behave yourself"
My mama said I'm grown and well prepared
She said it's so simple to make it goin' well
And now it's my time to say
So when you give in
You get down
You loose grip
And you give up
It's gonna be fine
Everything's gonna be allright now
And then you hit it
You get up
You get grip
And stand up
It's up to you to make a brighter day
Look how just simply you can make your way
I used to care about what others think about
Then I was afraid to say my feelings loud
I didn't hear what world's tryin' to say to me
I'm not in the storm
The storm's inside of me
It's so simple to make it goin' well
And now it's my time to say
So when you give in
You get down
You loose grip
And you give up
It's gonna be fine
Everything's gonna be allright now
And then you hit it
You get up
You get grip
And stand up
It's up to you to make a brighter day
Look how just simply you can make your way
Just look around you
And it's up to you to make yourself a brighter day
You've got a pocket full of dreams
You're on your way
Just look around you
And it's up to you to make yourself a brighter day
You've got a pocket full of dreams
You're on your way...
It's up to you to make yourself a brighter day
You've got a pocket full of dreams
You're on your way
Just look around you
And it's up to you to make yourself a brighter day
You've got a pocket full of dreams
You're on your way...
So when you give in
You get down
You loose grip
And you give up
It's gonna be fine
Everything's gonna be allright now
And then you hit it
You get up
You get grip
And stand up
It's up to you to make a brighter day
Look how just simply you can make your way
It's up to you to make yourself a brighter day
