(Thomas/Levitt)



 Everyones 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

This door swings both ways
