The chill of wind and ice outside
The past may have been cold
But now is not eternity
These are the days of old
You think you understand your life
When suddenly, things change
Things that were familiar
Will suddenly seem strange
The chill of wind and ice outside
The past may have been cold
But now is not eternity
These are the days of old
The curve balls that are thrown at you
Direct your path of life
The choice to which controls you
Determine love and joy, or strife
The chill of wind and ice outside
The past may have been cold
But now is not eternity
These are the days of old
Sometimes life will knock you down
But you'll get up once more
A challenge to you, it shall be
Though no longer a chore
The chill of wind and ice outside
The past may have been cold
But now is not eternity
These are the days of old
I know myself that it is hard
I've been there in the past
So now I stand here telling you,
'These trials, too, shall pass'
The chill of wind and ice outside
The past may have been cold
But now is not eternity
These are the days of old
Remember, as you go through life
When struggles hit you rough
To not let them take hold of you
Remaining ever tough
I promise you, I understand
It's hard to stay so bold
But now is not eternity
These are the days of old
