Got a shoebox full of memories
Good and bad, mostly in between
Cupboard full of broken slate
Each in turn that I've wiped clean

Got a life time of bad timing
Guess I should have left it to the wind
Got a shoebox full of memories
Good and bad, mostly in between

You got a long way to go, you know
You got to smile when you're down
Get up when you're low
Turn your eyes to the sun and let it all go
Turn your eyes to some light
And the darkness will go

Lots of time on my hands
Nothing to do to try to understand
Cos I got lots of feelings to plan
I got to put them into boxes
Before they get out of hand

The telephone is off the hook
I'm gonna put things in proportion
Gonna read a good book
Sit down and clear my mind
Gonna put my life on pause
'Cause I can't rewind

Got a long way to go, you know
You got to smile when you're down
Get up when you're low
Turn your eyes to the sun and let it all go
Turn your eyes to some light
And the darkness will go
woah-oh, lo oh-woah, lo oh-woah, lo ohwoah
Every night I lie awake and I'm
Running out of potions that will put me to sleep
Every night I lie awake
And I'm numbing my emotions
'Cause they are too hard to keep

But I know it won't take long before
I forget about these feelings and I move along
I know it won't take long
Before I put you in my shoebox and I carry on

Got a long way to go, you know
You got to smile when you're down
Get up when you're low
Turn your eyes to the sun and let it all go
Turn your eyes to some light
And the darkness will go

You got a long way to go, oh you know
You got to smile when you're down
Get up when you're low
Turn your face to the sun and let it all go
Turn your eyes to some light
And the darkness will go, oh

Oh woah-oh oh
Oh woah-oh oh

Got a long way to go, you know
You got to smile when you're down
Get up when you're low
Turn your eyes to the sun and let it all go
Turn your eyes to some light
And the darkness will go
