Like the river flows, like the east wind blows
You're gonna find your situation changing for the better
Like the melting snow just let your trouble go
'Cause you and I will get through this together

Some days seem to drag on forever
You need all your strength just to keep your head together
Soon you'll see, things are gonna get better at last
This too will pass

Like a sprouting seed, you'll grow through this need
And the things that bring you grief shall be forgotten
Like an hourglass, this too will pass
And what's hard as rock will soon be soft as cotton

Some days seem to drag on forever
You need all your strength just to keep your head together
But soon you'll see, things are gonna get better at last
This too will pass

This too will pass
This too will pass
This too will pass

You feel like you've been chosen to be frozen in time
Your body is exhausted, you feel like you've lost your mind

But these eyes they see that you're nearly free
And if you can hang on a little longer I swear you'll see it too
Well, a prophet I ain't, I'm no mystic or saint
But I promise you, my angel, I will see you through

Some days seem to drag on forever
You need all your strength just to keep your head together
Soon you'll see the things are gonna get better at last
For this too must pass

This too will pass
This too will pass
This too will pass
