Catch People Being Good lyrics

Every day is a good daySome days are better than othersI win in all the ways that countFamily and friendsGood enough healthReasonable material comfortA fulfilling jobI never tire counting my blessings

This I know is trueIt’s incumbent on all of usTo catch those we love being goodAnd tell them that we love them

The happiest people in America:Men who are married andWomen with childrenParenting is toughBut the rewards are unparalleledChildren give life purpose

Here’s my life philosophyCatch people being goodIf they’re close to youTell them you love themTell that to them whenever you canDon’t be shyDo it often

You’re a good personYou are thoughtfulYou are kindYou make my life happierI see youI value what I see

Don’t reach the end of your lifeRegretting the things you did not sayCatch people being goodBecause that makes their world betterAnd that makes your world better

If you love someoneTell them you love themTell them oftenBe specificAnd tell them again

If you love someoneTell them you love themTell them oftenBe specificAnd tell them again
