Life cycles lyrics

Artist  : Watchtower 
Song : Life cycles
 
Music: Jarzombek, Keyser Lyrics: Keyser One
moment's pause One moments retreat Away from the
heat ... The silent surroundings The black of the
predawn sky The chilled air of night All give
meaning to the sunrise Without darkness What
would we know of light? Day turns to night turns
to day A cycle that rules our lives The darkness
of night seems distant When the daylight arrives
Two steps forward, one step back It's an unbeaten
path we tread Sometimes we get blown off track
Sometimes we get blown ahead Life's declines
precede life's highs Like the lines on a
biorhythmic chart Between the lows the beauty
lies Don't take your failure to heart We may be
dealt some cruel blows By fate's implacable hands
Changing the future - changing our goals Laying
waste to all of our plans No promises, no
guarantees Of a rose-colored existence Progress
comes slowly - always met with A measure of
ruthless Resistance Whether it's the pleasure of
success Or the pain of rejection Life doesn't
travel just one way In either direction Bitter
cold December Spirits - and time - seem as frozen
As the icy ground But time will soon fall And
march inevitably ahead The world keeps spinning
... Season come, seasons go As we helplessly
watch them fly by But life has cycles we can
Control In our own hands our destinies lie
