I can live with my old friend Disappointment
I can live with things not as they ought to be
I can snatch a sorry crumb of comfort
From the jaws of what might have been victory
I make do, like everyone
Put my head upon the pillow when the day is done
I make do, don't we all
Hope we're heading for a future
And not headed for a fallI don't know what this world's about
But this will be our year
I don't know why I'm singing out
But this will be our yearDay by day, brick by brick
We build it, make a life
Make something to call our own
Just enough to keep the wolf at bay
Just enough so you don't feel so alone
I make do, like everyone
What's the point regretting all the things we've done
We make do, that's what it takes
Yeah, you keep on keeping on
And you learn from your mistakesI don't know what this world's about
But this will be our year
I don't know why I'm singing out
But this will be our year
Come on now
But this will be our year
This will be our year.....I make do, like everyone
We make do, that's what it takes
Yeah, you keep on keeping on
And you learn from your mistakesI don't know what this world's about
But this will be our year
I don't know why I'm singing out
But this will be our year
