Not Everything Has To Be Sad Lyrics

Three faded decades down the timeline

Yet still I'm dying to live

I'm not an Elvis or an Einstein

But still I've plenty to give

My journey's still coming together

I'm sure gonna get there uh huh

My boat has held sure through bad weather

They say that I've changed for the better

So maybe I'm done with my sad songs

Turns out that I am the lucky one

It's got nothing to do with perfection

Finally learning the lesson

That not everything has to be sad

Not everything will turn out bad

Well I'm still learning to be patient

Rome wasn't built overnight

Life with no trial or tribulation

I doubt that ever felt right

If sadness still sings in the distance

The water stays calm just you listen

Ahead with those hands you've been given

And stretch out the sails you've been missing

Maybe I'm done with my sad songs

Turns out that I am the lucky one

It's got nothing to do with perfection

I'm finally learning the lesson

That not everything has to be sad

Not everything has to be sad

Not everything has to be sad

Not everything has to be sad

Not everything will turn out bad
