This Door Swings Both Ways

Everyone's life is bittersweet It's a door that opens wide And no man can call himself complete Till he's seen it from both sides This door swings both ways It's marked 'in' and 'out' Some days you'll want to cry And some days you will shout This door swings both ways It goes back and forth In comes a southern breeze Or a cold wind from the north This door swings both ways Lets in joy and pain In comes the morning sun And then the evening rain This door swings both ways Lets in dark and light Every day you make the choice To let in wrong or right When shadows fall You must prepare yourself for sunshine For everything there is an end And so my friend you must be brave This door swings both ways Which one will it be Will we live in happiness or dwell in misery This door swings both ways Lets in earth and sky Make the most of livin' if you're not prepared to die Make the most of livin' if you're not prepared to die (This door swings both ways) --- This Door Swings Both Ways - Herman's Hermits
