Colours

If you had a choice

Which would you choose

Red or yellow

Or purple or blue

Your choice indicates

Happy or sad

Do you wake up each day

Feeling good or bad

Do as I do

When I first open my eyes

Say to myself

Today is a prize

The smell of the dew

On the new mown grass

The sun shining brightly

The shadows it casts

A wonderful feeling

The fresh morning air

The world's your oyster

A life without care

This is the way

Life's meant to be lived

Forget all your troubles

The headaches they give

You'll find there are days

Much harder than some

Keep your eye on the prize

Till the sadness is done

Tomorrow's are bright

And shiny, full of hope

Laugh at the world

Tell yourself a good joke

It's worked for me

For many long years

It'll work for you

Just shoo way your fears

If you had a choice

Which would you choose

Red or yellow

Or purple or blue
