BACK A MILE

All of us look back in life one day
Thinking of the now and of one's past
Realizing how foolish we were at times
Of the fact forever nothing will last..

We wonder why we lived then for all
And forgot to live for as well us too..
And one day it seems too late in life
To do the things we like to as well do..

To paint to write songs and poetryto create
To be more sensual seductive romanticly right..
To dance as if you yourself own the very floor
And to sit in candle light by a fire bright..

Enjoying one right then that you simply adore
To take her by the hand take her to a place..
Where two thus alone can become ever so one
Not caring of past future only moments of grace..

As one in oceans of love until dawn and sun
Hasn't been a lot of this in my own life..
But I've been there over time thus to know
Those few diamonds small worth all life's strife..

Angels ever sublime some of incredible fame
And until this very day come what ever may..
I've never yet whispered a single name of then
Or who they were away back then on that day..

But we all look back in time and in memory
And to be asked what's with that smile..
Some of regrets some of gladness some of joy
And we just say .. Days gone by back a mile..
