 | How can I win in the game of life,
When I feel like I've lost already?
How can I find a beautiful wife,
When beauty I no longer see?
How can I give love to anyone,
When all my love has been given?
How can I appreciate the new day's sun,
When, the gods, I have not forgiven?
How can I focus on anything,
When my mind is so far away?
How can I laugh or dance or sing,
When all I do is pray?
How can I bathe in glory and splendour,
When all I feel is cold?
How can I live with youthful wonder,
When all I do is grow old?
How can I travel a thousand miles,
When I'm sinking into the ground?
How can I wish for days of smiles,
When I've lost the beauty I've found?
How can I ever pick myself up,
When I have nothing left to build?
How can I ever have enough,
When the emptiness cannot be filled?
How can I even begin to cope,
When I know that my heart is broken?
How can I find a glimmer of hope,
When there are no words left unspoken?
Well,
I CAN find a glimmer of hope,
'Cause the shine is from within.
I CAN even begin to cope,
'Cause there's always an end to suffering.
I CAN one day, perhaps, have enough,
'Cause there's plenty to be had.
I CAN definitely pick myself up,
'Cause, of times passed, I'm glad.
I CAN wish for days of smiles,
'Cause each day is a new life.
I CAN travel a thousand miles,
'Cause gone is the restrictive knife.
I CAN live with youthful wonder,
'Cause I can conquer my fears.
I CAN bathe in glory and splendour
'Cause I can hide my tears.
I CAN laugh and dance and sing,
'Cause I have life in my blood.
I CAN focus on anything,
'Cause I have, on things I've loved.
I CAN appreciate the new day's sun,
'Cause it means we're never apart
I CAN give love to anyone,
'Cause that's the way of my heart.
I CAN find a beautiful wife,
'Cause I'm here for all to see.
I CAN win in the game of life,
'Cause YOU saw beauty in ME.
