It was like a dream, like a vision in book
She led me by the hand, down the hall for a look
She asked me if I wanted, to see what was inside
The room it was my heart, and I cast all cares aside
Do you want to see the love you have dreamed of?
What could’ve been if you had had unselfish love?
Do you want to know the life you were born to live
This is the greatest gift I can give
I see the kids that need me, the wife I forsake
I seem to miss it, day after day
I come face to face with my biggest mistake
It’s not you, it’s the memories that I didn’t make
The life that I dreamed of is here, in front of me
Happiness in the life, is here, my family
I have overlooked it, like a bad Christmas play
The ghosts of my future say it’s not too late
My heart nearly stopped, I awake from the dream
I look and see you lying next to me
I really hate to wake you, but I’ve got to say
Things are going to change starting today
I will call in this morning, take the day off
The kids and us, should go play mini-golf
When life is over, I may have many mistakes
I refuse to look back on memories that I did not make
