Every Once in A While...
Every now and thenThe sadness catches me unaware
And I stumble and fall
Sometimes...when I'm on my own
I think of you
And where you are...
And what you're doing
And I can't help but get choked up
Then...I hear my father speak
The drill sergeant that he was...
And I buck up
And tell myself...
"Stop feeling sorry for yourself !
There's always someone worse off than you !"
I know this to be true
And I know that right now...
One of those someones...is you...
And then...deep within my heart...
I summons that tiny spark...
Called...HOPE...
Repeat as necessary...
