Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
My dear father liked to sing
Popped to the top of the day
The drops are easy to swallow
My dear father liked to sing
Mopped your tears and milked your sorrows
To not drown_yourself_wishing_for better tomorrows

(Chorus_1)
You want to_think bright
You want to think right
A star falling down, down, down
Doesn't break the night

You want to think bright
Whatever you do
Shadows bring you down, down, down
Dimming all the light
As you try to climb

For life has a funny way of going round and round
On a ride it goes one day
Side to side one day upside-down down down

You can make it right
Well worth a good fight
And if some days have downs and lows
Open your arms to better tomorrows

(Vers5 2)
A floating tune is in the air
The simpl5 things you care to share
A trace of light, a flock of sparrows
And being high, you dare to follow
Open your arms to better tomorrows
Tomorrows

(Chorus 2)
You want to think bright
You want to think right
To let your heart sing, sing, sing
On a summer night

You want to think bright
Whatever you do
When the strings go zing, zing, zing
Fly high with the band
Just get up and swing

(Instrumental break)

You can make it right
Well worth a good fight
And if some days have downs and lows
Open your arms to better tomorrows

(Bridge)
Watercolors in May
Painting a purple sky
Up and alive, a river
Strokes on a mandolin
Playing a gentle sigh
These are the simple things that matter

(Chorus 3)
You want to think bright
You want to think right
And let your heart sing, sing, sing
On a summer night

You want to think bright
Whatever you do
Teeny bells go ding, ding, ding
Laughing in the wind
Kite on a string

For life has a funny way of going round and round
On a ride it goes one day
Side to side one day upside-down down down

And you make it right
And your heart is bright
So let the world go how it goes
Open your arms to better
Open your arms to better tomorrows
