IF I HAD THE POWER to turn back the clock, Go back to that house the the end of the block, The house that was “home” when I was a kid, I know that I’d love it more now than I did. If I could be back there at my good mother’s knee - - And hear once again her advice to me. I’d listen as I
never listened before, For she knew so well what life had in store.

And all the advice that my dad used to give; His voice I’ll remember as long as I live, But it didn't seem really important then; What I’d give to live it all over again, And what I would give for the chance I once had, To do so much more for my mother and dad; To give them more joy and a little less pain; A little more sunshine, a little less rain.

But the years roll on, and we can't go back, Whether we were born in a mansion or a shack; But we can start right now, in the hour that’s here, To do something more for the ones we hold dear, And since time in its flight is moving so fast, Let’s not spend it regretting what’s past; But lets make tomorrow a happier day - - By doing our “good unto others” today. - - Unknown
