The Past Forever gone



Some time ago, when he was young

Into the world, he was flung

Not knowing what he was destined to do

Maybe it was, the same for you



But anyway, he followed the crowd

In retrospect, he's not that proud

That he did not, follow his dream

Because at the time it seemed, too extreme



The past, forever gone

Did he do right, or was he wrong



The past, forever gone

Did he do right, or was he wrong



He had a life, that did go well

If he'd done things differently, well who can tell?

He made his mark, in an unexceptional way

But look where he stands, in the world today



The past, forever gone

Did he do right, or was he wrong



A diamond in the rough

Did he do enough?

Did he have the right stuff
