Skipping down the lane
With optimism and joy
With everything to gain
Having fun with a new toy
Tripping on the ground
And falling to your knees
There's nobody around
To listen to your pleas
Pull yourself back up to stand
Brush the dirt from your dress
Things never go quite as planned
You never do impress
Raise your chin and dry your eyes
Forget about the past
It doesn't matter how many tries
The memories always last
It's time to start again and skip
And fill your heart with passion
Next time make sure that you don't trip
It's not a passing fashion.
