Long

I remember loving this song when it first appeared in Season 2 of “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” but it has been haunting me ever since hearing it again in the end credits of the series finale when it moved me to tears.  I think it should be my new theme song.

“Oh, the sun will rise in the morning
Or so I’m told, but who knows?
You could win a million bucks in the morning
And then get rolled by a mob of stinking hobos
Good news, you can’t lose
When you tell Mr. Blues that you choose to keep going
We’ll never stop, we’ll keep on moving forward
Even if we don’t know what we’re moving towards

They say life’s too short, but they’re wrong
It’s so long!
Sometimes the only way to go
Is to just go on

Keep a smile in your pocket when the wolf is rat-a-tattin’ at the door
Just lock it tight
Keep a dream in your heart and you’ll never ever want for more
Unless you’re in a knife fight
Chin high, spit in the eye
Of the folks who can’t stop laughing at the stupid things you’ve done
Don’t ever stop even if though your heart is breaking
Don’t look over your shoulder at the love you’ve left behind

They say life’s too short, but they’re wrong
It’s so long!
Sometimes the only way to go
Is to just go on”
