This song, to me, represents the eternal hope that tomorrow brings, no matter what your yesterday was. Yes, many of us might have something that holds us back. That should however not be a reason to turn our back to the sun. We might feel we got a raw deal, but then, think again. Maybe, the journey to being a ripened fruit is just what we needed.
Don’t put an estimate on yourself or your life. It’s not over yet. Tomorrow may bring a colour that you never knew existed on your palette. Go the mile. It’s the twists and turns that make the journey far more exciting. After all, it is your life to live
.An ounce of life remains
Still somewhere within me
A new heartbeat weaves
A today that keeps me alive
This moment reminds such
That it never was mine to own
And right now all I need
Is just a fleeting touch
Perhaps I should give in
Or maybe just live it up
Should I plant happiness a kiss?
Or let the tears fall?
Perhaps just give in
Maybe I’ll relive it all
Yes, an ounce of life remains
Still somewhere within me
The soul scorched by the blazing sun
Has found the soothing shade of a tree
Like the lost smile of a forlorn child
That finds its way on being tickled
The heart feels something such
As the painful past has been healed
With the grace of this moment
That never was mine to own
And right now all I need
Is just a fleeting touch
Perhaps I should give in
Or maybe just live it up
Should I plant happiness a kiss?
Or let the tears fall?
Perhaps just give in
Maybe I’ll relive it all
I was akin to a free falling kite
With no today or tomorrow to claim
Such was the story of my life
But I now feel connected to
the new dawn that awakens me
Even though tomorrow will have
New painful promises to keep
This moment strums an ache
That never was mine to own
And right now all I need
Is just a fleeting touch
Perhaps I should give in
Or maybe just live it up
Should I plant happiness a kiss?
Or let the tears fall?
Perhaps just give in
Maybe I’ll relive it all
