Look up, son. Stand tall and listen, he said.
Life ain't easy, and you know that.
But what you may have forgotten is that life can also be good.
At this the boy looked up, still impassive yet somewhat ready to listen.
Here, I say, perk up and listen now: the past is gone!
Forget what was, and invite the morning in.
And who knows? Soon, we may find you up and about again...
In fact I tell you, soon you'll start yearning, yearning for something new and fresh.
You'll find yourself craving for adventure.
And adventure I assure you will come...
So stand up, and welcome this new time.
