LEFT TOO SOON
Left Too Soon: A Heartfelt Reflection on Missed Moments
Lyrics
I just wasn't ready, it all came too fast
I was unprepared for the events; everything happened too quickly.
I never dreamed that yesterday would be the last
I never imagined that the day before today would be the final day.
Things I should have said, things I left undone
Regrets about unspoken words and unfinished actions linger.
All become too clear at the setting of the sun
Clarity about missed opportunities comes with the end of the day.
So I sit here waiting for the rising of the moon
I await the nighttime, reflecting on the premature departure.
Knowing in my heart that you left too soon
I am convinced in my emotions that you departed too early.
We had some times together - damn near shook the gates of hell
We shared intense experiences that almost challenged adversity.
But we didn't stop to look around - we didn't always do that well
We neglected to appreciate our surroundings and had shortcomings.
I wish we had the chance to do some things over
I desire an opportunity to redo certain aspects of our shared history.
But I guess it's always that way when you're lookin' over your shoulder
Reflecting on the past always involves second-guessing and regrets.
So in the rear view mirror I'm lookin in your room
Looking back in contemplation through memories, focusing on your space.
Just knowin' in my soul that you left too soon
I feel in my essence that your departure was premature.
I can't stop from thinkin about the things I could have done
I cannot cease pondering the actions I could have taken.
But I guess it's always that way when the race is nearly run
Regrets are a common theme when nearing the end of a journey.
We had great times together day after day
We experienced joyous moments day by day.
And we broke some bones and other things along the way
We faced challenges and endured injuries along our shared path.
All good things gotta end, that's the way they play the tune
All positive experiences have a conclusion, following life's rhythm.
But deep in my heart I know you left too soon
Despite acceptance, a deep emotional understanding that you departed prematurely remains in my heart.
