Sometimes you don't succeed
'Though it's your biggest need
Your plans, your aims, just getting along
Sometimes it all goes wrong
The things you dream at night
The meaning of your life
You doubt of everything
Like a bird with broken wings
But when this day ends
Your worries might be gone
You need setbacks to see
Which way you should be going on
No need to hang your head
See, what you have is yours
Just hope for better days
'Cause better days will come for sure
There may be days like these
There will be days like those
You've gotta take it as it comes
Go through the highest highs
Or through the lowest lows
You've gotta take it as it comes
You're always lost in thoughts
So you just lost your job
No need to mourn
When it's not what you were thinking of
Lost your insincere friends
And now you're standing there
Empty-handed it's okay
There's nothing they can take away
So when this day ends
Your worries might be gone
You need setbacks to see
Which way you should be going on
No need to hang your head
See, what you have is yours
Just hope for better days
'Cause better days will come for sure
There may be days like these
There will be days like those
You've gotta take it as it comes
Go through the highest highs
Or through the lowest lows
You've gotta take it as it comes
Oh when the sky comes falling down
Just sit it out like a rain shower
And hope for better days
There will be better days
The less you have, the less you lose
So don't you be afraid
You will get more than you expect
When you just
Take it as it comes
There may be days like these
There will be days like those
You've gotta take it as it comes
Go through the highest highs
Or through the lowest lows
You've gotta take it as it comes
