a debate over the meaning "Positive"
what is the word for some who avoids drinking alcohol doing drugs and illegal things?
actually I'm looking for some informal slang-type word**
Could the word "positive" be understood as that for a native speaker?
This is what I told someone who claimed that you can use the word "positive" for that meaning which I disagreed and said "positive" refers to"hopeful way of thinking" not avoiding drinking alcohol etc.

A-down affection's cloudless sky
what does the last line mean?
Oh, the years creep slowly by, Lorena,
The snow is on the ground again.
The sun's low down the sky, Lorena,
The frost gleams where the flow'rs have been.
But the heart beats on as warmly now,
As when the summer days were nigh.
Oh, the sun can never dip so low
A-down affection's cloudless sky.

nothin' worth the time ever really is?
what does that section of the song indicate?
____________
Tell me how you've been
Tell me what you've seen
Tell me that you'd like to see me too
'cause my heart is full of no blood
My cup is full of no love
Couldn't take another sip even if I wanted
But it's not too late
Not too late for love
My lungs are out of air
And yours are holding smoke
And it's been like that now for so long
I've seen people try to change
And I know it isn't easy
But nothin' worth the time ever really is
And it's not too late
It's not too late for love
For love
For love
For love
