Life is full of memories
And thoughts of yesterday.
Like the love that was
And how it could have been.
Yet few things in life
Turn out the way you want.
Life is full of surprises
And unexpected turns.
You can dream about tomorrow
And wait for it to come
And then you’ll find your dreams did not
Turn out the way you want.
You must plan all your tomorrows
And work for them today.
Otherwise, you’ll find your dreams
Are thoughts of yesterday.
