A place we've never been

I was walking down the lonesome plain
and I kept having these thoughts in my brain
thinking 'bout what will remain
when we sprout wings and leave this domain.

You know this life's not about loss or gain,
It's not about the success we attain,
nor is it about the price of our champagne...
what its about, I can't explain...
but I know and I can ascertain
that what matters is the frowns
that we turn into smiles;

It is the sunshine that we bring in times of rain...
It is the way we sustain
the life of the fellow men...
Its not about you and me,
but about we and we

And we need to refrain
from the insanity we entertain
then we shall see the the gain...
then we shall attain...
the peak--a place we've never been.
