I've been a fool so many times but it's ok

I'll be better, we are all allowed mistakes

After all these are beautiful times

Everything comes with an expiration date

It'll be years before we can accept this in our minds

But much is greater as and when it has aged

We will lose before we find

There are rules set already for this trade

The cost of equivalent exchange

Though nothing will ever truly fade

You will have lost, will have gained

A teardrop on the champagne glass rim,

Know tears and cheers taste the same.
