If We Could

If the hands of time could be turned back
Are there things that you would change?
If you’re past were not behind you
Are there things you’d rearrange?

Would you tell someone that didn’t know,
How much you really care?
If you could spend some more time with them
Would there be things that you would share?

Would things that may have made a difference
Be the first thing on your mind?
Little things that in your past,
Were overlooked and left behind.

Are there things we need to see to now?
Even though we choose to wait
Sometimes you see we wait too long
And then it’s way too late

If there are those you love then tell them
Make sure these words they hear you say
Don’t assume you have tomorrow
This could well be your last day

So let’s look now at the present
Before it too becomes the past
Look for little things that we can change
That forevermore will last.
