No Regrets

No Regrets

It’s hard when I’m looking back on my life
And I see all the things I didn’t do right
And I wish I had; Lord, I wish I had
I like to think I did the best I could
But I know I didn’t do what I really should,
Though I wish I had; I wish I had

I wish I could say I’ve lived a life of no regrets
I wish I had gambled and maybe won a few more bets
I wish I could say I took time each day
To smell the flowers and pray
I didn’t always live that way
But I wish I had

I never spent time to really love my wife
To learn about the person she is inside
But I wish I had; I wish I had
I never tried to take my songwriting far
Who knows? By now I coulda been a star
Yea, I wish I had; I wish I had

I never did finishe my college degree
I didn’t buy Microsoft in ’93
I guess I never thought I’d live this long, you see
But I wish I had
