Have you ever wished
that you could return
to your halcyon years
and wish you had learned
all the things you were taught
when you were so young
and life was a game
and living was fun?
Do you ever look back
on the things that you did
when you were so young
and were just a small kid
and remember the times
when you were too scared
to do all the things
that your friends had all dared.
How did you feel
when the years flew right by
and left you behind
in the blink of an eye
and did you ever lament
all the times you had pondered
the meaning of life
and the years you had squandered.
Well maybe it's time
you sat and reflected
on all of the hopes
and dreams you neglected,
maybe now is the time
that you'll understand
that not everything goes
the way you had planned.
