Cindy to Ana

Well, Ana, I'll tell you:

Life for me hasn't been a resort

It's been expensive,

And a lot of sand,

And crowded lines,

And places with no tropical drinks

No service.

But all the time

I have still been searching,

And reaching beach chairs,

And private hotel rooms,

And sometimes I've been going under waves

Where there's deep water.

So, Ana, just keep swimming.

Dont give up.

Because you will find it's kind of hard.

So, don't put your feet down

Never stop, friend,

Don't hold your breath,

And life for me hasn't been a resort.
