Something better is waiting 'round the corner

Something better
is waiting 'round the corner
People told me that
more than once
I told that to others
more than once

I strongly believed that
it helped me through a lot
Although I never really witnessed
that "better" coming round the corner
straight towards me

I applied for this job
several weeks a go
I told myself that was all
I ever wanted
in a job
it was perfect
and I desperately
wanted it

I was turned down
and a part of my world
collapsed for a couple hours
a day perhaps
until I started realizing

Why still pity what has
already happened
I can get irate with them
creating negative energy
on my side
nothing will happen

I can change my point of view
Too bad but something better
is waiting round the corner

Today I got a letter in the mail
They got this great job for me
They asked me as a trainer
of a group 12 year old
volleyball players

I was surprised
Thankful
I wanted this perhaps even more
than the other job!
No application forms to be filled in
No job interview
If I want the job
I'll get it.

Funny
cuz if i had gotten
the other job
i wouldn't be able
to take this one

So yes
I do believe
now more than ever
that
always
something better is waiting 'round the corner.
