Verse 1 All through winter we count the days, waiting for spring in so many ways. Then the flowers bloom once again, and we sigh, “Oh no… here comes the rain.” The sun is shining, the orchards glow, birds are singing soft and low. But before too long, somebody will say: “It’s far too hot… I need a breeze today!” Pre-Chorus Day by day we chase a dream, always wanting something more. Maybe happiness lives right here, closer than we knew before. Chorus You can’t please the world — that’s the way life goes. One day we ask for sunshine, the next we long for shade. When the rain is falling, we dream of summer skies, then the heat arrives, and we’re watching clouds go by. That’s just how we are — no need to complain. Better welcome happiness into your heart each day. Verse 2 In the summer we pray for wind to cool the warmth upon our skin. But when it blows and messes our hair, we laugh and say, “Life isn’t fair!” Autumn paints the woods in gold, stories that the leaves have told. Then someone smiles and softly says, “Who’s going to rake these leaves today?” Pre-Chorus Every season brings a gift, every season has its charm. Maybe there’s no need to rush, when the best is where we are. Chorus You can’t please the world — that’s the way life goes. One day we ask for sunshine, the next we long for shade. When the rain is falling, we dream of summer skies, then the heat arrives, and we’re watching clouds go by. That’s just how we are — no need to complain. Better welcome happiness into your heart each day. Bridge In the winter we dream of spring, summer longs for cooler winds. Autumn misses days gone by, and spring keeps reaching for the sky. Maybe the secret isn’t far away, it’s learning to embrace today. Every moment holds its light, if we choose to see it shine. Final Chorus You can’t please the world, you can’t please us all. That’s the way it’s always been through every rise and fall. Let’s laugh about the little things, tomorrow brings another song. Let kindness find a home inside your heart, with love and happiness where they belong. You can’t please the world, no matter how you try. Some days we love the sunshine, some days cloudy skies. So instead of chasing what you haven’t got, welcome joy into your heart… and treasure what you have.
