Ups And Downs

I made this song as a birthday present for my partner Katie a few years ago. The story of our relationship is a dramatic one full of ups and downs; joy, heartbreak, hilarity, sadness, thrills and spills. As we continue our adventure into the unknown together (now with a rad baby) this song only becomes more true!

Lyrics

Every day the sun goes up and down again
Every night the moon does quite the same

And it repeats (and it repeats)
And it repeats (and it repeats)
And it repeats (and it repeats)
And it repeats (and it repeats)

A hill becomes a river then a hill again
A climb becomes a slide the other side
But there’s no way to know what happens till it’s happening
And there’s no way to know what’s next until it’s now

I don’t know what we will find
But I’m happy that we’re finding out together
I don’t know what we will find
But I’m happy that I’m finding out with you

There’ll be surprises on the way
There will be happiness and pain
The only thing that we can say for sure
Is there’ll be plenty more ups and downs

[Whistle break]

And it repeats (and it repeats)
And it repeats (and it repeats)
And it repeats (and it repeats)
And it repeats (and it repeats)

I don’t know what we will find
But I’m happy that we’re finding out together
I don’t know what we will find
But I’m happy that I’m finding out with you

Oh I’m happy that I’m finding out with you
