you picked them up

look up and see so natural blue
Breaking through grey, shining down on you;
Keep on thinking those happy thoughts
And, you know, happy will happen too

And when that long train
Comes rolling through this small town;
There will be sad tears
Rejoicing for you all around

You know you've tried as true as your eyes are green,
You've been so much more that anyone could ever dream.

You picked them up, you've picked them up
and you'll never let them go.
