If I could reach my hands through time
And steer this man within his youth Show him mistakes that he would make Share of my wisdom and the truth There are regrets we all must bear And many hurts that still cause pain Of things we did that brought us shame Like open sores upon the brain How much different life would be If timeless hands could guide our way Show us back then what we now see How peaceful now would be our day But life is learning as we live We do our best and then we hope Sometimes things seem to fall in place At other times we often grope So special is this life we lead Like Christmas gifts, a mystery We wonder what the next day brings But cannot change our history |
