A Century By Day!



Up in the morning to the sun.
Down in the night to the moon.
Love been my mourning not no fun.
Frown been my life not no spoon.
Above the sun and below the moon.
An afternoon full of grooms.
Yes or no what is the answer?
Caress of snow she answers in brrr.
He smiled as she said I do.
She looked at him and he did to.
As you grow your time gets faster.
Be yourself to live happily ever after.
