A certain measure of innocence
Willing to appear naive
A certain degree of imagination
A measure of make-believe

A certain degree of surrender
To the forces of light and heat
A shot of satisfaction
In a willingness to risk defeat

Celebrate the moment
As it turns into one more
Another chance at victory
Another chance to score

The measure of the moment
Is a difference of degree
Just one little victory 
A spirit breaking free
One little victory
The greatest act can be
One little victory

A certain amount of resistance 
To the forces of life and love
A certain measure of tolerance
A willingness to rise above
