Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye
Dancing Through Life's Ups and Downs: Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye
Lyrics
False or true, I wish I had a clue or two
Uncertainty about the truth, wishing for understanding
Where I stood I thought I knew
Confidence in a previous belief or position
Or should
Questioning the correctness of the stance
True or false, life wasn't ever any waltz
Life's challenges were never easy
Then it caught the somersaults
Unexpected difficulties emerged
For good
Permanently affected by the challenges
Might have known it would
Anticipation of difficulties
Ev'ry Time my heart begins to dance
When experiencing happiness, something disrupts it
The world steps on my little toes.
World's response when feeling joy
Ev'ry time I take a little chance
Negative consequences following risk-taking
I pay right through my little nose.
Suffering losses after taking a chance
Ev'ry time I fly my little kite
Effort ends in an unexpected obstacle
It catches on a tree.
Unfortunate outcome despite efforts
Ev'ry time I throw an anchor out
Consequences of attempts often lead to undesired results
It pulls me in the sea.
Being dragged into difficulties
Ev'ry time I feel a little glow
Feeling of happiness followed by disappointment
I always get a little shock.
Unexpected negative experiences
Ev'ry time I stick my little chin out
Consistently facing adversity when being assertive
I always get a little knock,
Receiving setbacks when taking a stand
And when I aim my arrows at the sun
Failing to achieve goals despite efforts
They always miss their mark
Inability to reach aspirations
Leaving just a lonely little lady
Enduring loneliness due to missed opportunities
In the dark
Being left in a state of isolation or obscurity
