REGRETS

I have regrets high enough to bury a city
made mistakes 'nough to plow the earth
have disappointments so devastating
that I wonder was it all worth

Was it worth the pain and the suffering
was it worth the tears that I shed
was it worth the nights of lonely sadness
was it worth the sleep lost in bed

I can't change the past or deny it
I can't run from the truth of it all
I can't wipe the memories that haunt me
or the deeds that caused me to fall

So I'll shrug and leave it behind me
Like the dust and the dirt that we sweep
scoop it up into my old dust pan
and go forward into a new street

Where life will have a new meaning
where my steps will be careful and free
where the smell of coffee and flowers
will be what life gives to me.
