There are lots of people in the world
And the kindest people I’ve met by far
Have been the humble
With our young hearts open wide
We went out into the night
Seeking adventure
Eyes shining in the moonlight
We easily saw delight
In all we found there
We hitchhiked across the countryside
And how we arrived
Only we know
It was once in a lifetime
Just like every moment
Even this one
I am fortunate to be inspired
To sing when my unknown desires
Fulfill to overflowing
If I didn’t feel the bliss in my palm
I’d miss it all without knowing
Sometimes my life has been all right
The best way to get through the night
Is to remain calm
Easier said than done
It is a practice
I practice all day long
The only time and place for happiness
Is here and now,
Respectively
Floating in the eye of the storm
I feel that I was born
To find this peace
The tapestry of my life
Though woven of hardship and strife
Adds up to a picture of great beauty
Because right here and now
Finally I feel
Happy, healthy and free
This is my humble wish
For all, big and small
Far and near to me
