Heart of Life · John Mayer

I give lots of encouragement to others.  Not much seems to come TO ME these days in any form...and somewhere along the line I forgot that I can be my biggest source of strength.  So to the sad little girl facing another tough day...here you go....

(P.S.  Because I just wrote a line and deleted it fifteen times...this also goes out to my sister and to the friend I know is having a really tough time right now...I can't just cheer for me....it seems to be impossible. :)

I hate to see you cry
Lying there in that position
There's things you need to hear
So turn off your tears
And listen

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No it won't all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good

You know, it's nothing new
Bad news never had good timing
Then, circle of your friends
Will defend the silver lining

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No it won't all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
Fear is a friend who's misunderstood
But I know the heart of life is good
I know it's good
