Is it this time of year that makes you feel sad
Other people I know say it makes them feel glad
Is it this time of year, that just brings you down?
Is it this time of year, that the outcomes are clear
Conclusions are reached, the ending feels near
Is the time just near, to let it all out
Why can't life be so easy and free
Just paint all your dreams... and then they will be
But oh, that's just the way that life is
You see the frowns on their faces, waiting in line
All the too-ing and frow-ing frustration is growing
Were all inching nearer to the finishing line
You heard a baby was crying, his brother just laughing
A mother ignoring, while its father looks baffled.
Confusion and heartbreak can't be the bottom line
Why can't life be so easy and free,
Just paint all your dreams... and then they will be
But oh, that's just the way that life is
Why can't we figure it all out?
When will you see?
The worlds oh so beautiful
Appreciate the now, just here with me
Why can't life be so easy and free,
Just paint all your dreams... and then they will be
But oh, that's just the way that life is
That's Life
