Regrets

REGRETS

Most everyone has regrets from earlier life
Don't dwell on your past, it's not your best bet
Deal with the present, the past is history
And the future?... It's not here yet

If you regret things you've done in the past
You know you need to move ahead
Let every day be a new begining
And let your past be dead

You can't put the genie back in the bottle
Remember, this is the real world
Like the line in a country song goes
"You can't un kiss the girl"
