"This is how it works:

You're young until you're not,

you love until you don't,

you try until you can't,

you laugh until you cry,

you cry until you laugh.

And everyone must breathe until their dying breath.

Now this is how it works:

you peer inside yourself-

you take the things you like

and try to love the things you don't.

And then you take that love you made,

and stick it into some-

someone else's heart,

pumpin' someone else's blood.

And walkin' arm in arm,

you hope it don't get harmed-

but even if it does,

you'll just do it all again.

And on the radio,

you'll hear November rain.

That solo's awful long,

but it's a good refrain."

~Regina Spektor
