A song for you

I'm putting together an iTunes playlist for you- mostly of old stuff that your dad enjoys, and hopes you will too.  Even as I write this it occurs to me that, from your perspective as a whippersnapper, iTunes very may well one of those quaint technologies that old people used to use before the transponder neuro.Link™ was perfected to the point that it no longer lobotomizes hapless Pearl Jam listeners in product testing groups.  

Daddy just went of on what you might call a tangent. 

Anyway, here are the lyrics to one of the songs in that playlist.  I hope you like it.  Maybe you'll be able to read them to me once someone teaches you that there are actually more than 7 letters in the alphabet

Love you,
Dad

The Answer Lies Within
Look around 
Where do you belong 
Don't be afraid 
You're not the only one 

Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by in doubt
The answer lies within

Life is short
So learn from your mistakes
And stand behind
The choices that you make

Face each day
With both eyes open wide
And try to give
Don't keep it all inside

Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by in doubt
The answer lies within

You've got the future on your side
You're gonna be fine now
I know whatever you decide
You're gonna shine

Don't let the day go by
Don't let it end
Don't let a day go by in doubt
You're ready to begin
Don't let a day go by in doubt
The answer lies within.
