Things go up and then they go down

Chase a smile with a frown

He knows that his joy will stop

Waiting for the other shoe to drop

He's a ship on the sea

Setting sail to perfidy

He is cold, he is warm

He's the peace inside the storm

Feel the swelling of a wave

Hear the ringing of a bell

He's been weak and he's been brave

He's been to heaven and he's been to hell

See the old in the new

See the life stretch out before you

See a mother in the child

There was youth behind grey eyes

I don't know him anymore

He isn't like he was before

A stone is taken by the tide

Another season on the other side

Like the spinning of a wheel

He'll be hurt but he will heal

There's a flower in the weeds

There's a life inside the seed

(And he said)

"I have never been as happy as I am today"

(But then the seasons turned and the darkness came)

"So when it all falls apart

I will have peace in my heart"

(Try to think of the healing that comes out of the pain)

"Try to redeem myself for my mistakes in advance"

(The sun will shine after the rain)

"I know that when I fall down

I'll get another chance"

(Just wipe away the tears and try again)

We couldn't see without the dark

Thing's wouldn't end without a spark

There is no truth without lies

And no future without memories

He's in the middle of the road

From where he's been and where he'll go

He's the forest kissed by flames

The trees die so they can grow again

He knows that death is part of life

He would have made that girl his wife

Now there's only darkness

There is no dawn, now that she's gone

(And he said)

"I have never been as happy as I am today"

(But then the seasons turned and the darkness came)

"So when it all falls apart

I will have peace in my heart"

(Try to think of the healing that comes out of the pain)

"Try to redeem myself for my mistakes in advance"

(The sun will always shine after the rain)

"I know that when I fall down

I'll get another chance"
