Life Has Its Little Ups and Downs
Embracing Life's Rollercoaster: A Song of Resilience and Love
Lyrics
I don't know how to tell her
I struggle to convey to her
That I didn't get that raise in pay today
Didn't receive the expected salary increase today
And I know how much she wanted the dress
She desired a dress in Baker's window
In Bakers window, and it breaks my heart
Seeing her disappointment hurts me
To see her have to wait
She has to postpone plans due to the situation
And cancel all her plans she made to celebrate
Canceling celebratory plans she had made
But I can count on her to take it
I can rely on her to handle it positively
With a smile and not a frown
Taking it in stride with a smile, not a frown
She knows that life
Acknowledging that life has its ups and downs
Has its little ups and downs
Comparing life to ponies on a merry-go-round
Like Ponies on a merry-go-round
Like a carousel, life has its cycles
And no one plants the grass green every time
No one succeeds every time, like planting grass
But she don't mind
She accepts these challenges without complaint
She wears a gold ring on her finger
She wears a gold ring, a symbol of commitment
And its mine
The ring belongs to me
The new house plans we've had so long
Plans for a new house will be delayed
I guess will gather dust another year
Expectations of progress may have to wait
And the daffodils are blooming
Daffodils she planted are blooming
That she planted way last fall
Plants from last fall, symbolizing delayed results
Upon the hill, and over by the gate
On the hill and by the gate
And Lord knows I hate to say again well have to wait
Reluctantly acknowledging another delay
But you can bet that shell just take it
Confident she will handle it positively
With a smile and not a frown
Smiling through challenges, not showing distress
She knows that life has its little ups and downs
Acknowledging life's fluctuations
Like Ponies on a merry-go-round
Comparing life to a merry-go-round
And no one plants the grass green every time
Not every attempt yields success
But she don't mind
Yet, she handles it gracefully
She wears a gold ring on her finger
Symbolic gold ring on her finger
And I'm so glad that its mine
Expressing gratitude that she's mine
She wears a gold ring on her finger
Reiteration of the symbolic gold ring
And I'm so glad that its mine
Reaffirming gratitude for the relationship
