life regrets

[Verse 1] I look back at the road behind, At all the moments I left behind, Words I swallowed, chances I missed, Memories fading through my fingertips. I thought tomorrow would always wait, So many dreams I left to a later date, I kept on running, afraid to slow, Never knowing how fast life would go. [Pre-Chorus] Now the years are whispering my name, And yesterday will never be the same, I can't go back and change the past, But I can learn from what didn't last. [Chorus] These are my life regrets, The things I wish I could forget, The doors I never opened, The love I left unspoken. All the tears and all the pain, All the chances lost in yesterday, I carry them, but I won't let My life be only life regrets. [Verse 2] I wish I'd stayed a little longer, Held someone's hand a little stronger, Said “I love you” when I had the chance, Instead of letting silence take romance. I wish I'd trusted my own heart, Instead of being scared to start, I spent too many nights afraid to fall, Only to realize I was afraid to live at all. [Pre-Chorus] Every mistake became a scar, But every scar reminds me where I are— No, I can't rewrite what has been, But I can choose what happens next. [Chorus] These are my life regrets, The things I wish I could forget, The doors I never opened, The love I left unspoken. All the tears and all the pain, All the chances lost in yesterday, I carry them, but I won't let My life be only life regrets. [Bridge] Maybe regrets are not the ending, Maybe they're the start of mending, Every road that led me wrong Still taught me how to carry on. If I could speak to who I was, I'd say, “Don't wait for someday, just because. Tell them you love them, chase the dream, Life is shorter than it seems.” [Final Chorus] These are my life regrets, But they don't own my future yet, The past can stay behind me, While tomorrow waits to find me. I may stumble, I may fall, But now I'll give my heart my all, And every breath I have left Will be more than life regrets. [Outro] So I'll forgive the person I was, For all the things I never could, The past is written, let it rest, I'll make tomorrow something blessed. No more living in yesterday, No more letting fear decide my way, I'll turn these regrets into a guide, And walk toward the other side.
