Dreaming of the future

When the world just seemed so old

Seeing life through childish eyes

No story to be told

Hopes and aspirations

Were there to just define

Problems that will come my way

Too distant to be mine

Endless days of sunshine

Skies of purest blue

Looking back through aged old eyes

 It all just seemed so true

With age they say comes wisdom

The Lessons that I learned

A youthful heart of promises

Now just scorched and burned

If I could turn back the hands of time

Would I do it all the same?

Another chance of destiny

Another shot at fame

Regret is just a feeling

Of the unaccomplished soul

I should not be so greedy

I need to take control

Life never works out

The way we dreamed back then

It can begin at any time

It’s just a case of when

Looking back through aged old eyes

I know have no remorse

The path I walked down as a child

Simply will change course

So once more into the sunshine!

Let me take the next steps slow

For as the heart grows older

I define just where I go
