Never

(album: The Absence Of Presence - 2020)

I look back, and wonder
Have I let time escape
Days pass and years slip away
It's sad when young dreams fade

Though I've gone from day to day
My mind is filled with wonder of
The things that might have been

Never took the time to find
The things inside that I need
Something else always in the way
Never said the things I should have said
So you could know me
And what makes me breathe

Each moment that has been lost
Will never come again
We never know the cost
Of those who should be friends

How it troubles me to think
All the love that passed me by
And I was blind to see

Never took the time to find
The things inside that I need
Habits are hard sometimes to break
Never said the things I should have said
So you could know me
Always playing safe

The things I've missed along the way
Will all come back tomorrow
With the light of a new day

Never took the chance
But what I've found could be a new way
Letting myself accept and change
Never want the world
To spin another day without me
Never let it end
