Sometimes I sit and just reflect,
look back upon my life
And consider all the moments
as they pass before my eyes

People they have come and gone
but some have stuck around
And they're the ones I'll treasure most
'til I am in the ground

Lessons they have taught me
each and every one
And for them I am grateful
I love them every one

I have friends that I remember
and friends I now forget
Experiences both good and bad
but none that I regret

For all the things that I have done
have brought me this place
Where I sit now and look back
at how I ran the race

At times I've looked out on the world
from a less than happy place
I have loved and I have lived
You can see it in my face

So thank you all to everyone
who's path my life has crossed
You became part of my journey
And stopped me getting lost
