Private Thoughts
They come to me in idle times, my private thoughts
my life could it better be, why did I shrink back
Grasp the moment or let it fade
sleepless nights and sleepy days
if and buts and always why
to myself what all denied
I have a home and some friends
family how close am I am to them
I did not build strong relationships
I always daydream and live with regrets
To myself I have mostly been
is that in a way a shy sin
Looking forward do I have the will
take a small step to reconcile
Be a helping hand to other souls
no more regrets or even though's
But the light turns green and off I go
with my private thoughts down my private road
