Where Do We Go From Here Poem by James Casey

Where Do We Go From Here

Have I lost my sense of wonder
Is all my innocence asleep?
The dead memories of the past
Makes all that we have seem cheap

Now where do I go to see
Now that the sun has set
As darkness sets in behind me
Forgive me, but life hasn't left me yet

Remember when our love was young
All things seemed warm and fuzzy
Then we could dance round and round
Got dizzy and fell slowly to the ground

Then we'd laugh and laugh
Over things that made no sense
Are we just too damn sober now
To enjoy that again at our expense

Are we just too old to see the humor of it all
Lets go out and spin round and round
There's things still bright and shiny
And get dizzy until we hit the ground

We'll again laugh and laugh
Because it makes no sense
We can be young again
You see it's all at our expense
