Whatever happens
We’ve left some love along the way
When it ain’t easy
We’ll look for some words of love to say
And smile and be happy anyway
And we’ll kiss before we say goodnight

And whatever happens
There be some times along the way
When it ain’t easy
It just can’t be sunshine everyday
We’ll smile and be happy anyway
And we’ll kiss before we say goodnight

Bridge
I’ve got you in my life
Together we can reach for higher ground
We’ll be alright just as long as you’re around
Girl, I won’t let you down

Whatever happens
They’ll be some good times and some bad
When it ain’t easy
Let’s remember the good times that we’ve had
And smile and be happy anyway
And we’ll kiss before we say goodnight
