There was a time
I was sure that I knew
I was on top
No way could I lose
But life has a way
of diluding the mind
leaving your heart
suspended in time

The choices we make
mistakes come and go
rearranging the man
that we've come to know
turning him in
and turning him out
losing him in
illusion and doubt

Where you end up
is your choice alone
you can let it win
and cut to the bone
or you can rise above
the hurt and the shame
and learn to live life
all over again

Dont let go of the truth
thats burried inside
Hav'nt you learned
theres no place to hide
Just hang on tight
to the things that will last
cause there aint no future
In the Past

What you have done
may have made the man
that does not mean
you can't change the plan
search deep inside
you'll probably see
the one who's been waiting
the man you should be

Learn from the past
dont let it control
and dont be afraid
to let it all go
look down inside
dont hold it all in
you just might find
that you like you again

Life has the power
of holding us back
aint it about time
we went on the attack
to change the direction
that we're headed in
Letting go of the past
To love life again

Dont let go of the truth
Thats burried inside
By now you know
there aint no place to hide
Just trust in the things
that you know will last
cause there aint no future
in the past

No nothing you've done
will ever last
cause there aint no future
In The Past!!

Cool post Gar. I have to think that someone who can write something so eartfelt would eventually meet someone that will make them happy. Good luck.

Wonder if Alan Jackson's lookin for songs? Sorry if you're not into country, but that's definitely something I can hear him singing.
