This song is dedicated to Three Lovely Ladies:

to my Lovely Daughter, Anita Marie Bessler (born: 5/23/1970)

for her 45th birthday,

to my Lovely Companion, Nancy Shaw (born: 11/22/1932),

and a to New Friend, nearly Anita's age -

Beverly Anne

 

REFRAIN:

Keep it light, my Baby, Keep it light.

Keep it light, my Brother, Keep it light.

Keep it light, my Sister,

my Mother, my Father,

my Lovely Daughter,

my Worthy Son,

my Friends, Everyone.

Don't live in fright.

Keep it light.

 

If there's any advice, I would give,

it would be to keep it light and forgive.

The burden of grief can only be relieved

it you focus on life's - grand majesty.

Refrain.

 

To keep it light, what do I mean?

You must not be too serious to be free.

Just embrace your wonder and all that you are

and you'll find yourself - one with the stars.

Refrain.

To keep it light, be a grateful one.

Just say thanks to Life for all it has done.

Focus on all of Creation to know Jubilation;

and your life will be - one of Celebration.

Refrain.

 

To keep it light, it's easy, my friend.

Just be kind as you can and you cannot offend.

Everyone you will be doing a wonderful deed.

Keeping it light simply makes - for liberty.

Refrain (2).

 

Ending:

Yes, Everyone,

Listen to me.

Don't live in fright.

Keep it light.
