I yearn for days wasted in my youth Had not known the value of each one Wishing back summers hanging from tree limbs Those unpolluted seasons are done Dimensions of yesterday remembered in color Dappled spectrum of greens and blues Berries picked preciously with eager pleasure Firm trail wild beneath worn shoes The thing I wish I knew back then What matters most is today Failed to appreciate my younger years Best times of my life I just let slip away I can't help but think about it each and every day

Remembered In Color
I yearn for days wasted in my youth Had not known the value of each one Wishing back summers hanging from tree limbs Those unpolluted seasons are done Dimensions of yesterday remembered in color Dappled spectrum of greens and blues Berries picked preciously with eager pleasure Firm trail wild beneath worn shoes The thing I wish I knew back then What matters most is today Failed to appreciate my younger years Best times of my life I just let slip away I can't help but think about it each and every day
