Bowl Full Of Cherries
Life was a bowl full of cherries
Each day different from the next
Never as sweet or a sour
Not one the least or the best
The cherry I tasted that morning
At first had a sweet, pleasant look
But I've learned not to judge by the outside
The cover is not like the book
It was next on my taste buds quite bitter
I tripped and I fell in the hall
I had forgotten my papers
And you had not answered my call
But bitter is better than sour
That I came quickly to know
For bad went to worse oh so quickly
And I was left on my own
So life is a bowl full of cherries
Some not so pleasant and sweet
And I've learned not to trust any liars
Or leave my poor heart on my sleeve
