Well I know it's been a hard road for so long now
And it's taken you for a ride down down down
But you must laugh even though it seems that you should
Cry

Each morning brings us a different day
And it's counting our lives down down down
But you must try until at last you'll know why

A grain of sand, one single leaf
A candle by itself burning
I'm just a man, only a man

And the rules of life I'm still learning
Turn me round, turn me round
Well people for years I gathered the tears
I looked for the frowns on your faces
Now I walk down the street
And the people that I meet
One by one I've met thousands
And that's why I feel
That to give is the fruit
The fruit of living our lives
