lyrics
Cheer up sunshine it’s time to be brave,
I know this is hard, so hard to take,
but these crystal tears don’t suit your tender years,
come on now, I know you can make it.
There’s no need to run, just face things head on,
never capsize in the waters of life,
if anyone ever gives you a smack,
Pick yourself up and you crack ‘em back.
Remember kid, what you’ve been gid,
what’s truly yours is what you’ve worked for,
and money’s a disease that will cripple and squeeze
the whole world to death, so be careful where you tread.
Cheer up sunshine it’s time to be brave,
although my heart has started to break,
it’s such an honour to shoulder the pain,
I’ll miss you so much but always remember your face.
I’ll always remember your face.
