Seize the Day

    Feeling Small

    2007

    When I'm feeling sad and small
    I curl up in a little ball
    And wish the watching world away
    I close my eyes and quietly say:
    No one knows and no one cares
    And I am no one after all

    When I'm feeling just so-so
    I cast adrift and let it flow
    And watch the tide within the bay
    I look across the waves and say:
    Someone sees and someone shares
    And I am someone in the know

    When I'm feeling top and tall
    I spread my arms to welcome all
    And greet each brand new dawning day
    I lift my eyes and boldly say:
    One who soars is one who dares
    And I am one and I am all
