Sooner or later you will find a way
To feel like sunshine even on a cloudy day
To feel like morning in the dead of night
Sooner or later it's gonna be all right

Now don't go thinking your life's a mess
Rather start thinkin' in terms of happiness

And it's gonna happen
Just decide were you're goin'
Get out in the open
And start blazin' your own trail again

It takes time sometimes to figure out
That there's nothing to worry about
And that there's plenty to be thankful for
It takes time sometimes to know the score

See everybody's got a smile inside
So put it upon your face and wear it with pride

And it's gonna happen
Just decide were you're goin'
Get out in the open
And start blazin' your own trail again
