When you’re weary, sad or down, just go outside
And let nature cheer you up with her colorful gifts
‘cause, don’t you know… that colors are the smiles of nature
Just look at them and before you know you’ll find yourself smiling back

Dwell between the plenty free blooming flowers
In the green of the luscious meadows
Lay down a while on your back, just letting go
and only watch the clouds go by in the sky

Wander through the many different colors of green
Go along the bending paths of the forest
And time and time again let yourself be surprised
By the beautiful new outlooks you see

Stroll along the coastline, your feet in the sand
Enjoy the blue and white shades of the sea
Realizing that the things you encounter in life
Will come and go again just like the waves

Climb higher and higher ‘til you’re reaching the top
In wonder of the grey and green mountains
Let the everchanging views that you see underway
Give a new perspective every single time

There is never a reason to see only the shadowy grey
Because colors are the smiles of nature
So, just plant your smiles, grow your laughter
and then you will harvest love all around
