Hindsight

Reflecting back on days long gone

I stop to ponder what went wrong

The things I did or didn't do

Regret is such a bitter brew

Hindsight's always 20/20

Things I'd change would sure be plenty

Impulsive actions, I would curb

Sleeping ghosts, would not disturb

If I could do it all again

I would have been a better friend

If I could go back for just one day

And see it all on instant replay

I'd know exactly what to do

I'd know just what to say to you

I'd choose a different road to walk

I'd speak a kinder, wiser talk

I'd spend more time at my father's knee

And I'd know just what I wanted to be

I wouldn't have wasted precious time

For Father Time is never kind
