I sit and worry about the world I live in
A thousand bright ideas and I'm sitll in the cold
I need to know that love is growing out there
A flower in darkness, just waiting to unfold
A simple life, plain living and high thinking
That's what the poet said in a book I read today
I need to know that love is all around me
Like a blanket I hold it tight, it's simple but it's here

I have a right to feel
A right to be happy
A right to smile and look beyond those darkening day
If I could, I'd save the world this moment
Sometimes it's hard to find a reason
Not to run away

Hold me gently
I think I want to tell you
I'm scared and lonely and I hate to be alone
I need to know that love will burn all around me
Farther out as farther in a song I've never know

I have a right to feel
A right to be happy
A right to smile and look beyond those darkening day
And if I could, I'd save the world this moment
Sometimes it's hard to find a reason
Not to run away

I have a right to feel
A right to be happy
A right to smile and look beyond those darkening day
And if I could, I'd save the world this moment
Sometimes it's hard to find a reason
Not to run away
