Life is a winding road,
Twists and turns along the way.
With cracks and potholes,
and some places where you can't find your way.

Many times in life we come to a turn,
and we can't see around the bend.
Sometimes we stumble and maybe fall,
but we have to get up and carry on.
Even when the darkness comes and you have lost hope,
you must walk the winding road...
