lyrics

One more kiss goodnight, another fatal tragedy
Hold me tight, can we just let it be?
Times may be worse before they get better
Anger we rehearse makes us bitter

Tell me something positive

One more violent crime, victims flash in front of you
Number rising high, what are we supposed to do?
Times may be worse before they get better
Dark thoughts we rehearse makes us bitter

Tell me something positive
Only so much I can give
Dwelling on the negative
Only got this life to live

Tell me something positive, I'm trying to take my mind off
the fate of the world
Depending how you look at it the future could be elegant
or something absurd
Only place is here, only time is now
To open up your heart or change it anyhow

Tell me something positive

One more peaceful night, another Sunday walk with me
In this light, hope for all humanity
Times may be worse before they get better
Dark clouds never hang around for ever

Tell me something positive
Only so much I can give
Dwelling on the negative
Only got this life to live

Tell me something positive
We've got so much left to give
Dwelling on the negative
Only got this life to live
Only got this life to live
