It seems like only yesterday That the world lay at our feet Setting out to blaze a trail Life’s challenges to meet When dreams, and opportunity Our heart showed the way - Too late to change now The times it led astray.
With our hard fought freedom We forged those trails ahead Not prepared, we know now To where those paths had led Because we're in a hurry There was neglect, it's true Wet noticed not, how time Too fast, past by us flew.
Living now a quiet life Old ambitions put on hold Perhaps with some embellishment Past adventures are retold Sometimes we reflect on Life values lost along the way So was the world a better place Than the one we leave today?
The years have passed on by And the pace of life slowed down In the hope new generations Have their feet set on the ground For it is our children Who must lead the way Lamenting still - they not know Our world of Yesterday.
