Today's song is "Life is a Merry-Go-Round" by Donovan. It says
Make up your mind to be happy,
Life is a merry-go-round.
If you miss out this time,
Don't let it fret your mind,
Love will come round in the end.
This song is for when I've been going through a good time, so I'm feeling strong and confident, but I'm about to embark on something that will be more trying.
The song sounds like it is meant for someone who is currently down, to cheer them up, but it doesn't work that way for me. Once I'm already down, I want a song that goes to where I am. There is the possibility of finding hope when I'm down, but I need a song that lets me live in the down before I can find that hope for moving up.
