I was told not to look back I might get caught up
So what if I do I'll be damned if I give up
Remembering the life before and wondering what could've been
Wondering if the path that was chosen wasn't a win
It's all these things that it's all fair to think about
Not anything to say out loud no thoughts to shout
Just looking with an open mind one last time
Just feeling with an open heart writing this rhyme
The people the places the things have passed me by
Though I know in my heart that I'll never cry
I have my memories and I'll leave them there
As fuzzy and warm as my black hair
It makes me think to myself damn time goes by so fast
Wondering about those times that didn't last
But alas as I close the page of the book once again
I say it's always good to look one more time my friend
