Audrey Heller - Through The Years

Through the years, with laughter and tears,
somehow we managed to hold on. Even
though there were rough times, we held
fast, before it was gone. Nothing comes
easy in life unless you happen to be born,
with a silver spoon. We must learn to
appreciate what we have, for it's taken
away, all too soon. There are wonderful
memories to cherish. Look back,
remember them all. There were days
filled with sunshine, not rain. Days when
we, had ourselves a ball. Whomever said,
life is a bed of roses? Of course, we know
that's not always so. Whatever is supposed
to be your fate, believe me, you will know.
Just take each day as it comes, be happy,
make the best of it. Don't tie yourself into
a knot. You have but only, one life to live,
so give it all that you've got!
