Climbing the Stars

If only I knew then
The things that I know now
I would have known the score
I would have known just how

To make a smarter choice
and avoided my mistakes
I would have been more careful
and saved myself  heartaches

But then I face reality
I can't go back in time
I can't retrace my broken steps
the choices that were mine

Forward is the only way
that life will let me go
I've learned a lot from my mistakes
They've helped to make me grow

Into the person I am today
a wiser one by far
as I discern my future steps
as I climb from star to star

But as I look at all I've done
and all I've yet to do
there's one mistake I never made
and that's when I chose you
