When your mind starts to QUEER,
and your eyes start to TEAR,
There is one way to make your mood BRIGHTEN,
just look over the HORIZON.


When DARK thoughts appear,
and your soul is too FRIGHTENED,
Just go to the BEACH,
and look over the HORIZON.


When there is no sign of BELIEF,
and your heart is full of GRIEF,
there is no need to get BEDIZENED,
just look over the HORIZON.


                                            When DARKNESS shades LIGHT,

                                             and there are things you have

                                                               FORGOTTEN,

                                                    just CHILL near the shore,

                                      and surely your hopes would TIGHTEN.
