Redo

Newest song.  I wrote this one earlier this week.  It's called "Redo."  I got to thinking about all the times in life when we wish we could go back and redo something we said or did.  It happens to all of us and it's just part of the learning curve of life.  (Sentimental, I know.)  Lyrics are at the bottom again...

Redo

There are certain things that make me think of you

Memories of a past I wish that I could just redo.

If I had a clock I’d make the hands of time go back

Another chance to say what I was just afraid to ask

The better person was you even through your loss

You were the perfect study in how kindness comes across

I knew but I was hesitant to lay things on the line

Instead I shut myself off and left you and us behind

I would just redo much of what I said and did

I’d redo it so you would know the truth.

But hind sights 20-20 and it makes me see my flaws

Part of my regret is that I didn’t give my all (to you)

You’re gone and now I sit here with some questions on my mind

I don’t know if they ever will be answered in my time

I guess in some ways I have learned to give with all I have

To say and do and feel and make the most and not look back

It’s hard to live your life avoiding all of the what if’s

But those questions will never bring back all of what you missed

It’s time that helps you come to grips with how things really are

There’s no redo or rewind and well that make life so hard.

I would just redo much of what I said and did

I’d redo it so you would know the truth.

But hind sights 20-20 and it makes me see my flaws

Part of my regret is that I didn’t give my all (to you)

Redo redo redo redo redo

I would go back and try to just redo you

I would just redo much of what I said and did

I’d redo it so you would know the truth.

But hind sights 20-20 and it makes me see my flaws

Part of my regret is that I didn’t give my all (to you)
