After This You Needn'T Regret
After this you needn't regret
Your life is bourn as your child today
Voudrais tu une cigarette?
All stakes are high upon this bet
Though grace and patience is all to pay
After this you needn't regret
In warmth and bonds may trust inset
The glow of knowing till egos play
Voudrais tu une cigarette?
Advice wears over for angst's outlet
Never rash nor heavy, never lose light in day
After this you needn't regret
In a wink and a worry in your Autumn set
A thought to the child now grown away
Voudrais tu une cigarette?
Then a day your child takes up the fret
You smile to see their berth and say:
After this you needn't regret
Voudrais tu une cigarette?
