An Old Favorite Song
As I sit here
Four A.M. and wide awake
Looking back upon my life
Nostalgically, I contemplate
Memories that linger
Memories that fade
And some that never happened
By fate I never made
Who does one call upon
When dreams are not enough
To find purpose in end results
Sometimes so tough
And here I am today
That rear view mirror so clear
The past carved in stone
Reviewed year by year
Living in the past
I know is not where I belong
But I’ll smile as there on my radio
Plays an old favorite song
