THE DIFF’RENCE IS IN ME

I’ve noticed something lately that I never saw before--
My neighbors are so thoughtful and my family loves me more;
There’s music in the traffic and there’s laughter in the air,
And little deeds of kindness everywhere.
I feel excited like a kid the first warm day in May;
Like something great is just about to happen any day.
The grass and trees and sky look different;
The people passing by are different,
Could it be the diff’rence is in me?
I just can’t wait to find out what each day will have in store.
The things that were important aren’t important anymore.
I find that what I value are the things I can’t replace:
A happy home and sunshine on each face.
The joy I feel in knowing I have chosen to do right;
To know that all the past is gone and I can sleep at night.
My days are filled with simple pleasures;
Love and peace and other treasures,
And I believe the difference is in me.
Tag- The people that I meet are different,
The taste of what I eat is different,
I do believe the difference is in me.
Repeat Tag
The diff’rence is in me
Diff’rence is in me (3x)
