My answers:
Why I love it: It says take the risk, drop your pride, and learn to be strong enough to cope well with either good or bad outcomes. It says the risk of loss, shame and sorrow is worth it it.
Shower The People
*You can play the game and you can act out the part
Though you know it wasn’t written for you
But tell me, how can you stand there with your broken heart
Ashamed of playing the fool*
One thing can lead to another; it doesn’t take any sacrifice
Oh, father and mother, sister and brother
If it feels nice, don’t think twice
Just shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna work out fine if you only will
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way you feel
Things are gonna be much better if you only will
*You can run but you cannot hide
This is widely known
And what you plan to do with your foolish pride
When you’re all by yourself alone*
*Once you tell somebody the way that you feel
You can feel it beginning to ease*
I think it’s true what they say about the squeaky wheel
Always getting the grease.
*Better to shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna be just fine if you only will*
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna be much better if you only will
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
You’ll feel better right away
*Don’t take much to do
Sell you pride
They say in every life
They say the rain must fall
Just like pouring rain
Make it rain
Make it rain*
Love, love, love is sunshine.
Oh yes
Make it rain
Love, love, love is sunshine
Yeah, all right
Everybody, everybody
Shower the people you love with love
Why I love it: It says have integrity, and recognize and respect the integrity of others.
Every Kinda People
Said the fight to make ends meet
Keeps a man upon his feet
*Holding down his job
Trying to show he can't be bought*
Ooh, it takes every kind of people
To make what life's about, yeah
Every kind of people
To make the world go 'round
Someone's looking for a lead
In his duty to a King or creed
*Protecting what he feels is right
Fights against wrong with his life*
**There's no profit in deceit
Honest men know that
Revenge do not taste sweet**
Whether yellow, black or white
Each and every man's the same inside
It takes every kind of people
To make what life's about, yeah
Every kind of people
To make the world go 'round
*You know that love's the only goal
That could bring a peace to any soul
Hey, and every man's the same
He wants the sunshine in his name*
Ooh, it takes every kind of people...
