Pop oldie.
Story behind the song
Yes, it's an old song.
But hey, I'm an old guy.
Perfect match.
Sometimes we need to remind ourselves to be our own best friend.
We need to remind ourselves that even though things can get crazy at times,
we are the ones who make the decisions.
And I have a lot to be thankful and grateful for.
Yep, I'm still breathing. ;)
Lyrics
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You gotta make your own kinda' music ,
You gotta be your own best friend,
And once you realize that you choose it,
The sun is gonna shine again.
You know those days you'd like to skip right on by,
You start to shake your head wonderin' why.
Forget about tomorrow,
Start livin' for today.
How 'bout those times you start to get that Friday fever,
Only problem is you're readin' Tuesday's news,
You wish you were immune to,
Those Monday morning' blues,
You gotta make your own kinda' music ,
You gotta be your own best friend,
And once you realize that you choose it,
The sun is gonna shine again.
And once you realize that you choose it,
The sun is gonna shine again.
There are those times when you say hey what's the use,
She's talkin' between the lines and you don't need this abuse.
Don't think that by tomorrow,
She's gonna change for you.
When are you finally gonna start to realize,
Sometimes we all use masks to hide from our own eyes,
Don't worry what she says now,
It's only up to you,
You gotta make your own kinda' music ,
You gotta be your own best friend,
And once you realize that you choose it,
The sun is gonna shine again.
And once you realize that you choose it,
The sun is gonna shine again.
