Текст песни You're Only As Good As You Think You Are - The Whispers

You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star
You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star

We were all put right here on earth equally
What you do with your life depends
On just what you want to be
Stars do shine, millions at night
But it's the sun that gives us light
You can be a sun, you can be a sun

You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star
You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star

Set your mind on whatever you want and it's yours
Have a plan, pray the man
And he will open doors, instantly
You will find just who you are
So go with faith and you can go, oh, so far
You can be a sun, you can be a sun

You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star
You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star

Stars do shine, millions at night
But it's the sun that gives us light
You can be a sun, you can be a sun

You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star
You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star

We've never been able
To get close enough to the sun
To see what's inside
Therefore, no one knows what it can do
Or what it cannot do
You and I are a lot like the sun
Because no one really knows what's inside
But we can control our lines
And we are bright enough to figure out
The solutions to our own problems
Each of us has the energy to achieve
Whatever it is we want in life
And each of us has the warmth
To really care about our brothers and our sisters
And if we can just learn to love each other
A little bit more
Then there would be no hatred
There would be no crime
There would be no violence
Together, we have the power
To make this world of ours
A better place to live in
Try putting these ideas into practice
And very soon, you'll become a firm believer in these words

You're only as good as you think you are
The sun is just a closer star
(You can be what you want to be)
You're only as good as you think you are
(You can be a sun)
The sun is just a closer star
(It's really up to you)
It's really up to you
