I want to recreate the past, if only for you
Oh! That you might remember something sweet
In case there’s a chance we never again meet
I’ll overwrite that last day to change the way
You think of me when you remember today
I want to go back and change a thing or two
I want to be stronger and braver for you
I want you to see me as something more
Then the pathetic girl standing at your door
I’d alter history if I could, only so you would
Remember me as being daring and good
I want to go back and change a thing or two
I want to be more kind and real with you
If I had known that tomorrow wouldn’t come
I would have been more beautiful, more fun
I want to rewind it now, to redo it somehow
So warm thoughts of me you could allow
I want to go back and change a thing or two
I want to have been more together for you
If only I could have held my head up high
It would be better if you never saw me cry
It’s now too late, but more than anything I hate
That you’ll recall me in this desperate state

We cannot change the past, only learn from it. That's a lifelong process. I like this. It speaks to the way I am feeling right now.

We all have regrets in our lives, whether we want to admit to them or not.
Hopefully the bigger the regret. the more we learned from it and the better we can handle ourselves in the future.
If the other person looks on you so badly for the way you were, perhaps one day they will be the one with regrets. :) |

Only thing you can do now is learn from your mistakes and move on to bigger and better things. History is just that... history. As much as a lot of us wish we could change it, we cannot. So keep your head up. Keep writing because you have such a talent and definitely a fan. And smile. :)
