when night falls
and I lie awake thinking
waiting for dreams
wishing for sleeping
i try to identify
the cause of my unrest
i guess i'm waiting for what could have been
as i grow
and i watch myself changing
unfolding like wings
growing like reaching
i try to identify
the thing holding me back
i guess i'm waiting for what could have been
all the "what-ifs"
and all my wonderings
play themselves over
and over in my musings
unhopeful and worried, lost and alone
i'm just waiting for what could have been
as i watch
my life starts tumbling
wounding my hope
and quickly crumbling
what's the one thing
keeping me from Your arms?
i'm still waiting for what could have been
i'll keep holding my breath for what could have been
an explanation: this is a song, and has a melody. it's not how i feel, it's a warning.
ReplyDeletedon't cling to the past, because it's already gone.
hey. thanks for the warning. I tend to replay the past too much rather than looking towards the future. all the could-haves and should-have-beens really are useless.
