"This Door Swings Both Ways" Lyrics

Everyone's 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 living if you're not prepared to die
Make the most of living if you're not prepared to die
(This door swings both ways, this door swings both ways)
(This door swings both ways)
