Story behind the song
Looking back at the mistakes of youth regarding friendships and relationships.
Lyrics
Young at heart and full of life Filled with hope but little insight We made our pact and walked our mile Heartened by a friendly smile A difference here, a sadness there Should have been so easy to bear What more could we expect On these things I now reflect And looking back on those days of youth With this knowledge of the somber truth If only I'd lived in that time With greater clarity of mind We parted ways with feelings changed So many things left unexplained Our synergy melted away With little learned and nothing gained I wonder what could have been If we'd followed through on our dream Or even if we parted friends With lessons learned from good amends And looking back on those days of youth With this knowledge of the somber truth If only we'd lived in that time With greater clarity of mind...
