Keep on smiling while you hurry down the road So much to do before days are getting colder You keep the spirits high and hands upon the wheel The world smiles back as if it knows what you are feeling
One morning - wake up! - it's in the middle of your life Find one good reason for yet one more smile There's always clouds on a blue summer sky They are just too far away to catch the eye
And the afternoon skies - they are burning like fire If you stop for a while - you can waste a few hours to find Comfort in silence - in solitude Where your mind can wander beyond flesh and blood
What if you're taken before you've finished Not too surprising - there's noon too soon Your line of options have soon diminished So finish up cause we're going home Going home
Keep on smiling while you hurry down that road So much to do before days are getting colder In every newborn child we hear the helpless cries Some they just keep on crying - until they die
There's always clouds on a blue summer sky They are just too far away to catch the eye
And the afternoon skies - they are burning like fire If you stop for a while - you can waste a few hours to find Comfort in silence - in solitude Where your mind can wander beyond flesh and blood
What if you're taken before you've finished Not too surprising - there's noon too soon Your line of options have soon diminished So finish up cause we're going home Going home
