Herman's Hermits - This Door Swings Both Ways lyrics

rate me

(Thomas/Levitt)<br />

Everyones life is bittersweet<br />

It's a door that opens wide<br />

And no man can call himself complete<br />

Till he's seen it from both sides<br />

This door swings both ways<br />

It's marked 'In' and 'Out'<br />

Some days you'll want to cry<br />

And some days you will shout<br />

This door swings both ways<br />

It goes back and forth<br />

In comes a southern breeze<br />

Or a cold wind from the north<br />

This door swings both ways<br />

Lets in joy and pain<br />

In comes the morning sun<br />

And then the evening rain<br />

This door swings both ways<br />

Lets in dark and light<br />

Every day you make the choice<br />

To let in wrong or right<br />

When shadows fall<br />

You must prepare yourself for sunshine<br />

For everything there is an end<br />

And so my friend you must be brave<br />

This door swings both ways<br />

Which one will it be<br />

Will we live in happiness<br />

Or dwell in misery<br />

This door swings both ways<br />

Lets in earth and sky<br />

Make the most of livin'<br />

If you're not prepared to die<br />

Make the most of livin'<br />

If you're not prepared to die
