I am high on life, yes I am.
Although not the same as I was back then.
It's now a body that always says no.
When all I wanna do is go go go.
Now I could be depressed and sit on my tush
But oh no not me I'll just give it a push.
So what if I waddle like a duck.
It's just my misfortune, sigh, darn the luck.
Oh I know I can't dance and move so groovy.
So now I'll just go and watch a movie.
And to go on a hike is just too hard.
So I just sit down and play some cards.
Riding a bike, nope I'd just go berserk.
But a stationary bike now that will work,
I swim just like a stone.
My leg power is all gone
You probably ask why do I feel so high.
There's nothing you stated to make me smile.
I can see that you really have no clue.
Of all that I really can still do.
For one thing I can still drive
This makes me feel so alive
I still cook meals for my family.
Not real fancy but hardy; good for thee
Housework does get done maybe not as fast
But it does finally get done at last.
I can still go bowling.
You should see that ball go a-rolling.
Concerts, movies any sit-down event
My MS never kept me from going I always still went.
So you see why I usually feel so high.
There is still much I do that makes me smile.
