Stayed up one time
Until late in the evening
I had so much fun
I couldn’t help myself
I knew I had to see the rising sun
I did and thought even then:
I didn’t want that moment to end
For some it’s enough
But gimme some more
Staying up or staying in:
Who loves life more?
Though I have to confess:
I blacked out while I was still dressed
Some do the work
That others ignore
They’ll be busy but:
Who loves life more?
Early to rise
I was working one morning
I got so much done
I had been up for hours but knew
I had see the setting sun
I did and thought even then:
I didn’t want that moment to end
For some it’s a pleasure
And others a chore
Schedules or sleeping in:
Who loves life more?
Though I have to admit
Near the end I slacked off a bit
Some people play
But are they secure?
They get by but:
Who loves life more?
Restoring the mind
Or minding the store
Punching in or punching out:
Who loves life more?
Though I have to suggest:
A small dose of both would be best
For some it’s enough
But gimme some more
Breathing in or breathing out:
Who loves life more?
