Don't get put down. Don't get pushed 'round. Hey! This is your life. Day by day, I hear you say the same things and it ain't right. There's a switch somewhere. There's a lever there. Pull it, push it, turn the wheel. Go on, pull it. Push it. Turn the wheel. We all get tangled up. You gotta wrangle with your problems, baby 'cause they ain't goin' nowhere.
I think you'll find you get some peace of mind if you remember about death.
There is only one day. There is only one way. (x2) Compassion, compassion, old fashioned love.
Magic's everywhere. Can't you hear the spirits calling so loud? The world's fallin'. We oughta be holding hands when it comes down. Each of us creates our own truth. It is up to me and it is up to you what you wanna do. It is up to you what you wanna do.
I think you'll find you get some peace of mind if you remember about love.
There is only one day. there is only one way. (x2) Compassion, compassion, old fashioned love.
