I wrote this with a different situation in mind but it might help. I have been separated three years and when performing in the UK I met someone for the first time since my separation who made me look at the world a bit differently and say that there are bright spots to all I'm going through. Here's the outcome:
There are so many roads never taken There are too many dreams pass us by There are so many paths we've forsaken There are too many hopes untried
CH: And it's time for a change for the better It's time for a change in me It's time just to smile and sit for a while in the warmth of your sweet company
There are so many words never spoken Leaving too many answers denied There are so many words said in anger Leaving too many tears undried
Now we each have the freedom to follow Our heads or our hearts if we please We can save all our joys for tomorrow Or go where our hearts want to lead
We each have to make choices and to experience pain to grow. Sometimes it just hurts like hell but in the end, hopefully we're a bit stronger a bit wiser and a bit happier with ourselves as a result. All the best.
