All it took was the lift of one sunny day driving with the windows down after a whole month of rain to see things from a new perspective. I just let my soul paint this picture.

A sunny drive with the windows down
Next to my girl with the eyes bright brown
The wind in the waves on a seaside scene
A day in the park with the grass so green

To seeing success in the little things
To getting in tune with the joy it brings
My bat on the ball 'cross the right field fence
And finding my groove on my instruments

All that gives me pleasure
Slips my mind sometimes when things go wrong
Right now I remember
All that makes me strong

I'm seeing my glass half full
I've got enough now to feel complete
My glass half full
I believe today that my life is sweet

Two miles back was a down-bound turn
Inside I'm feeling the tension churn
I lose my nature to smile and laugh
Preoccupied with the extra half

I shake my fist at an angry sky
Then I search my soul for an alibi
I ain't too proud when I strike that tone
'Cause all I need is here in my zone

All that gives me pleasure
Slips my mind when I'm not in control
Right now I remember
All that makes me whole

I'm seeing my glass half full
I've got enough now to feel complete
My glass half full
I believe today that my life is sweet

I will keep it in my mind on a rainy day
I will keep it in my mind on a rainy day
I got my glass half full
I got my glass half full
