I LONG TO SWIM IN GOLDEN SUN-KISSED WATERS

“At seventeen I learned the truth

it was the same truth I had already learned at seven

and so then twenty seven became my third time lucky number

numb is in the word, but not in my endlessly beautiful quest for love and lust for life” - AP

YOU GOT ME SINGING – LEONARD COHEN

 

Life is good

though I have put my childish things away

Life is good

and I will still find time to play

Life is good

I laugh and smile so much now every day

Life is good

now I have swept my foolish tears away

Life is good

now I have kept my foolish fears at bay

Life is good

I give my trust and hope I will obey

Life is good

in God I trust and hope I never stray

Life is good

I hope that love of life is here to stay

Life is good

I trust and hope I don't betray

Life is good

I kneel down on the floor and pray

Life is good

now I am hopeful and unafraid

Life is good

now the longing for that final ebb has passed away

Life is good

not perfect, but still worthwhile and that's ok

Life is good

I fell down low, but now I catch the new sun's rays

 

Life is good

the love of life I found so warm

warm as the sun

on the warmest Summer's day.
