WOULD YOU GO BACK

Would you go back?
Back to yesterday?
Are there memories of comfort
Hazy, warm, yet maybe

They are not so true
Time’s an elusive friend
Just when you thought there’s enough
The end comes once again

And just which yesterday
Is safe for such awhile
Was that really a kiss
Or just a fading smile

Then the morning comes
Just when it was the darkest…
Heard it all before?
Listen once more

Today is the day
Let it not pass into sorrow
You may receive the gift of life
The hope beyond tomorrow

Would you go back?
When there’s new beginnings always yet to be
His is the most precious of gifts
Blood bought for you to be free.

Would you go back?
Like the times before?
When you’ve known all along
There’ so much more?
