Lyrics

When you first begin your journey
 You're not sure of who you are
 And the lessons that you're learning
 They don't seem to take you far
 And you just can't keep from stumbling
 Though you try so hard to stand
 And the truth can be so humbling
 When it's just beyond your hand
 As though youth were my invention
 As though love lay undefined
 To stay free was my intention
 To stay young and unconfined
 And so I held my pride above you
 Oh, yes, what a fool was I
 Holding back those words "I love you"
 And letting out that word goodbye
 And I was wrong to let you go
 I was a child and I did not know about the love
 That we both should have given
 And now you've gone so far away
 I hope I'll see you again someday
 But if I don't, I hope I'll see you in heaven
 
 I was foolish in my younger days
 To think they'd never end
 Life confused me with its changing ways
 And I could not comprehend
 All the meaning in those moments
 Now lost like footprints in the sand
 And I'm standing here remembering
 But it's so hard to understand
 And I was wrong to let you go
 I was a child and I did not know about the love
 That we both should have given
 And now you've gone so far away
 I hope I'll see you again someday, baby
 But if I don't, I hope I'll see you in heaven
 ♪
 I've been sitting in this garden
 In the middle of my days
 And my memories fade and harden
 As the years they slip away
 And I've been looking in this mirror
 At the age around my eyes
 Time is such an earnest laborer
 Precision is his neighbor
 Lay my body in the ground
 But let my spirit touch the sky
 ♪
 I was wrong to let you go
 I was a child and I did not know about the love
 That we both could have given
 And now you've gone so far away
 I hope I'll see you again someday
 But if I don't, I hope I'll see you in heaven
 But if I don't, I hope I'll see you in heaven
 But if I don't, I hope I'll see you in heaven
