What We'Ve Got
We might all like a break
From the lives that we lead
But that change may not be
What we want or we need.
For there’s comfort as well
In the same old routine
And we may not be thrilled
With an alternate scene.
We can plan, we can hope,
We can wish, we can dream
Yet the future may not
Give us peaches and cream.
There are times that it’s best
To enjoy what we’ve got
Since to know what comes next
We most surely cannot.
