I may have missed out on life's little things, like winning an Oscar, a Grammy. I sure have gained life's big things, like being the best in the school play and singing in the choir. I never got the Nobel Prize ever, So I settled for the big prizes instead. Hugs from my friends and that look from my crush. Somehow never desired little things money could buy - a Birkin or a Ferrari. But cherished the big things money could never buy, **the bag mum knit and the high of riding on dad's shoulders.** I miss those days when games meant, Hide and Seek, I spy, Blind man's buff, Cops and Robbers. Games were not downloaded then. I miss the times when trips meant camping in the backyard. Those days days when the tooth fairy and Santa did visit me. I would love to have one more day to live that carefree life again...

One More Day [for Joe Cole]
I may have missed out on life's little things, like winning an Oscar, a Grammy. I sure have gained life's big things, like being the best in the school play and singing in the choir. I never got the Nobel Prize ever, So I settled for the big prizes instead. Hugs from my friends and that look from my crush. Somehow never desired little things money could buy - a Birkin or a Ferrari. But cherished the big things money could never buy, **the bag mum knit and the high of riding on dad's shoulders.** I miss those days when games meant, Hide and Seek, I spy, Blind man's buff, Cops and Robbers. Games were not downloaded then. I miss the times when trips meant camping in the backyard. Those days days when the tooth fairy and Santa did visit me. I would love to have one more day to live that carefree life again...
Thanks once again dear Joe for this trip down memory lane to the best days of life.
