Open up your answer book, What do you suppose you'll find? Answers to the questions You didn't even know you had in mind. Truth is ephemeral, Elusive as a wraith. No matter what you come to know, All you ever really have is faith. Life presents its problems. Every problem is a puzzle to be solved. If you seek to find the key, Sincerity will have to be involved. Know God loves you, and has loved you from the start. Read it in your answer book God has written in your heart.

I'm twenty-two, and the storm rages on

It's my birthday. The rippling thunder

underscores my sense of wonder

Another cycle is passing me by

The words barely rhyme

Nothing profound most of the time

Forget them all is all you'll do
C D E Am
I suppose it's too much to hope
F E
I could make you cry
Am E
Love's tear in your eye

And my oh my oh take your chances
