ANOTHER YEAR, ANOTHER SONG

“The future is as bright as your faith”. Thomas S. Monson

looking on the bright side
nothing can stop us now
a struggle goes on
but might be different somehow
distance won’t matter
gaps will always be there
another year in the making
more time for us to share

another year, another song
what has gone right, what has gone wrong?
are we now in for a reason
or we simply want to play along?

more questions, few answers
longer moments to compare
the signs are still hidden
there’s no more time to spare
some reasons aren’t enough
but there’s a quest that can’t wait
if we have to move faster
we have to lose some weight

another year, another song
what has gone right, what has gone wrong?
are we now in for a reason
or we simply want to play along?

a story line is made
and played on our screen
we can’t just recreate
a finished and unwanted scene
but we can rewrite the words
fine tune the instrument a bit
another song comes to life
if we persist and just don't quit

another year, another song
what has gone right, what has gone wrong?
are we now in for a reason
or we simply want to play along?

another year, another song
what has gone right, what has gone wrong?
a better song while we’re moving on
a stronger faith leading to a brighter dawn
