240129: My Old Life

from Leap Songs, Part 3 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

Wedding rings tire swings
Catch a glimpse of what might have been
Takes what it takes to walk away
Some mistakes we'll never make again

Don't take me back to my old life
Or doubt the reasons I left
Slowly changing my whole life
At least I'm doing by best

Every day it's a slow climb
One more step among the stairs
Don't take me back to my old life
There's nothing for me there

Maybe love isn't always enough
Take off the gloves if we got the guts
Half our lives are what we leave behind
No such thing as black and white
