BITTER WITH THE SWEET |
|
by Carole King |
|
SOmetimes I'm tired and I wonder |
|
what's so all-fired important |
|
About being someplace at some time |
|
Oh, but I don't really mind |
|
Cause I could be on Easy Street |
|
and I know that |
|
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet |
|
I guess it gets to everyone, |
|
you think you're not having fun |
|
And you wonder what you're doing |
|
playing the games you play |
|
Hey, well, it's true what they say |
|
If ou want to feel complete |
|
don't you know that |
|
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet |
|
A friend of mine once told me |
|
And I know he knows all about feelin' down |
|
He said everything good in life |
|
you've got to pay for |
|
But feelin' good is waht you're |
|
paving the way for |
|
So, don't let it get you down, my friend |
|
though it seems the blues will never end |
|
On this you can depend, they always do |
|
And I can tell you that it's true |
|
it's a feeling that can't be beat |
|
And you've got to do it |
|
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet |
