lyrics

Whenever I am down and out
And the world is dark
And it looks like the rain will pour forever

I think of you
That's all I need to do
And I find that I am better

Whenever I am on the street
And I can't find my home
My rightful place in the world

I think of you
That's all I need to do
You are my ocean pearl

Even in the summertime when the sun is high
And the bees are buzzing about
I wander into autumn leaves all so aimlessly
It's so plain to see I'm out

Whenever there are long days
And I've an anguished mind
And no friends to write a letter

I think of you
That's all I need to do
And I find that I am better

The snows of winter last how I wish they'd pass
And don't come back again
Look forward to the spring when the birds they sing
If it just would mean a thing

Whenever I am down and out
And the world is dark
And it looks like the rain will pour forever

I think of you
That's all I need to do (yeah)
And I find that I am better
