A certain measure of innocence
willing to appear naive
a certain degree of imagination
a measure of make-believe
A certain degree of surrender
to the forces of light and heat
a shot of satisfaction
in a willingness to risk defeat
Celebrate the moment
as it turns into one more
another chance at victory
another chance to score
The measure of the moment
is a difference of degree
just one little victory
a spirit breaking free
one little victory
the greatest act can be
one little victory
A certain amount of resistance
to the forces of life and love
a certain measure of tolerance
a willingness to rise above
