No Regrets
Date: April 4,2013
I’d rather be hurt by you
Than to have never held your hand
I’d rather feel this heartache
Than fail to understand
Love is only right
When all the stars align
I’d rather hurt, eyes open
Than walk away still blind
Seems fate’s a cruel master
But fate, we cannot change
The clock keeps ticking forward
Time can’t be rearranged
Our yesterday’s deceived us
With the sweetest memories
But we can’t live tomorrow
Trapped by ancient reveries
I’d rather be hurt by you
Than to have never known your name
I’d rather live with sorrow
Than to snuff our fickle flame
Too much has gone between us
To put this torch aside
I’ll just keep on, keeping on
I’ll hold it all inside
Regret won’t be my master
I’ve just this life to live
And I won’t live defeated
For what you couldn’t give
Time may wave in victory
But I won’t be its slave
This flame will go on burning
I’ll take it to the grave
