take me down to the river
about growing older, what gets easier, and what doesn’t
when life gives you lemons, just make lemonade
it’s easy to do, just don’t make it taste bland
when life gives you change, well, you do what you can
and you hope those around you will come to your aid
they say you can’t step in the same river twice
the water is always moving in a chase
but in lucky moments, you can find the light
of your earliest moments alive in this place
growing older is us starting to know
all inner celebrations exist to be seen
whether it is any small happy day, or Christmas, or Halloween
we must allow ourselves to smile and to grow

I want to erase the tears of all those who trusted in hope; I want them to be left with a smile on their faces.
