Tom Paxton Life
May the sound of children be your music
May your blessings be the ones you earn
May your days be filled with sun
May you deeply love someone
May that someone love you in return
And life - May yours be long and loving
Peace - May you enjoy its blessing
Joy - May it be yours to savor
Love - May it be yours forever
May your only sorrows be the small ones
May they leave you stronger when they go
May the love of friends be yours
May you live with open doors
May you feel the love within you grow
And life - May yours be long and loving
Peace - May you enjoy its blessing
Joy - May it be yours to savor
Love - May it be yours forever
May your smallest moment be a full one
May your life be all that it can be
May you come to love yourself
And hold that love above yourself
And hold that love for all the world to see
And life - May yours be long and loving
Peace - May you enjoy its blessing
Joy - May it be yours to savor
Love - May it be yours forever
