So you say your world Is falling down around your ears Everyhing you've planned has gone astray Through all the years Lift your head my friend, Try to see the other thing Don't give up, just change direction Turn around and start again Was a time when I was down With not a penny to my name And I knew I was in mind to throw away My chance of fame Dry your tears as I did then, Disregard the falling rain Don't give up, just change direction Turn around and start again Yes, for the world is full of people With their hope and future gone They were faced with your decision To give up or to go on So spend an hour in meditation, See the good things, not the bad And you'll find that life has given you Good reason to be glad While the spark remains You must try and try again Don't give up, just change direction Turn around and start again Yes, for the world is full of people With their hope and future gone They were faced with your decision To give up or to go on While the spark remains You must try and try again Don't give up, just change direction Turn around and start again
