It’s funny how years seem to soften, The memories of hardships long gone. The pain and frustrations do vanish- And only the good parts live on. We talk of good times and good partners- Lament all that fun left behind. Forgetting the heartaches and worries- That once did bewilder our minds. Like the times that my wife had those toothaches- She’d cry every night at my side… At the time I just barely made wages, So I worried and fretted and sighed. My children would oft need a doctor, We’d doctor them best that we could… It’s strange we forget all the bad times, And only hold onto the good. I’m glad that I once was a cowboy- It’s a lifestyle I’ll never regret… But along with our sweet reminisces, There’s a pretty fair bunch of regret. Like the patina formed on old silver- Unused and discolored with age… We had best blow the dust off our memories- If we’d truthfully read the past’s page. |
