Ain't It Sad How Things Turn Out To Be

Carl Halling





When I was young,

I was so carefree,

At least that’s how

It seems to me,

Ain’t it sad,

How things turn out to be?

 

Full of hope,

Full of passionate dreams,

A thrilling new world

Lay right before me,

Ain’t it sad,

How things turn out to be?

 

Glass half full,

Then it’s half empty,

My mood can change

So very unpredictably,

Ain’t it sad

How things turn out to be?

    It is sad when things turn out differently , not in the way want them too . It’s sad when pain comes our way .,, because it makes life feel empty and confusing .

      It does for sure, yellowrose, real concern arises when low moods don't lift after a time, thank you.
