Look on the Bright Side

Song Info

“	The riverbed might be the fastest way home... But at least this way I'll be able to find some shade and see more of the Outlands!	”
–Beshte, Swept Away

Look on the Bright Side is a song sung by Beshte as he searches for shade on his way back to the Pride Lands.

It is heard in Swept Away after Beshte is swept into the Outlands. He sings it to himself as a way of keeping his spirits high while he searches for shade in order to avoid getting a sun burn.

Lyrics[]

Beshte:

Poa! That sun is hot'

Gotta keep moving, long way to walk

Can't see shelter, I've looked a lot

No time to waste, no place to stop

'Cause one thing, hard way I've learned

If I'm out in the sun too long, I get burned

Loving every bit of this welcome breeze

But what I need is shade and trees

But it's okay, and it's all right

I'll push it along 'til Pride Lands in sight

Need a break, take a rest real soon

Til then, I'll be singing this tune

Gotta look on the bright side!

That shining sun will never get me down

Gotta look on the bright side!

A happy song will help me get around

Flood Plains would be great right now

How about a cloud so rain come down?

Even a shadow that'll hit the ground

Not a place that's to be found

Wait a minute, think I found the place

Great rock space I can take a break

Love the scenery, I mean to say

But gotta stay safe while I'm on my way

Gotta look on the bright side!

The long way home has lots of things to see

Gotta look on the bright side!

Spirits high is how I'll always be

Phew! Now, that hit the spot

Catch my breath, rest and cool off

Stretch my legs, step I can't stop

Home on my mind, time to move on

Pride Lands bound, be home with ease

Love that sun, but love shade and trees

Back real soon, had time to breathe

Found that shelter, no burns for me

Gotta look on the bright side!

That shining sun will never get me down

Gotta look on the bright side!

A happy song will help me get around

Gotta look on the bright side!

The long way home has lots of things to see

Gotta look on the bright side!

Spirits high is how I'll always be
