Everything can be just like it was before
You will have the key to open any door
You’ve been through a lot
But there’s one thing that you’ve got
The will to live

It’s a rare and precious viable commodity
The skeptics may consider you an oddity
But you can look them in the eyes
If you simply emphasize the positive

There’s a shiny spot on ev’ry dismal surface
If you scrape away the layers of despair
Look beyond the limitations to your purpose
And a window of escape will open right here in the air

It will all be over soon
Just you wait and see
You will sing a brighter tune
In a major key
Underneath your frown
I know a smile is lurking
The first time that you smiled at me
The magic started working

It will all be over soon
Time is on your side
By the setting of the moon
By the morning tide
Just beyond the dawn
Another day is waiting
I can hardly wait
To see your tears evaporating

Let the demons do their best to taunt you
You have chased them all away
If the goblins in your closet haunt you
You can send them screaming
To their dank and dreary cave

It will all be over soon
Sooner than you think
By tomorrow afternoon
Quicker than a wink
You must find a way
To put it all behind you
With your blessing I’ll make sure
That nothing will remind you

It will all be over soon
