Curve

from Forward by Beth Patterson

lyrics

Sometimes when life throws you a curve
You think it’s less than you deserve
But you’ve got to hold on and see what’s in store

We’ve all got some crossroads to bear
But if you pause to wonder there,
You might find that it’s better than before

Silver stars in smoky bars
The sound of Argentine guitars
Oh, life throws you a curve
Life throws you a curve

Sometimes when life throws you a curve
You hold fast and refuse to swerve
But you’ve got to stop, reflect, and count your tears
For fate so often has a twist
But ask yourself why you resist
It might be the very reason for your fears

Raising sights to greater heights
A jaguar stalking in the night
Silver stars in smoky bars
The sound of Argentine guitars
Oh, life throws you a curve
Life throws you a curve

Nothing you can do to change the force of nature’s plans
Only stop to see what sort of gift is in its hands

Sometimes when life throws you a curve
You seize the moment to preserve
But you’ve got to lose the fear that it won’t last
For there’s only here and there’s only now
So shake down from your worried brow
The phantoms of the future and the past

Flowers bloom beneath the sea
A tiny goddess running free
Raising sights to greater heights
A jaguar stalking in the night
Silver stars in smoky bars
The sound of Argentine guitars
Oh, life throws you a curve
Life throws you a curve
Life throws you a curve
