i live every second
and regret my mistakes
i try to think forward
before it's too late

i keep missing the past
but i cannot return
all the forgotten memories
i constantly yearn

why didn't i love
and appreciate then?
oh what i would give
to go back being ten

i miss my life there
and the love i would feel
but now that i'm older
things have gotten more real

in the future, again
i'll look back to this day
and i'll know this is just
another step in the way

the memories i yearned
i'm living one now
i wished to go back
yet i always knew how

i've learned to appreciate
all in the moment
i've made some more memories
new doors i've opened

i'm glad i've lived
to see everyday
i miss my past
but my future's okay
