in retrospect
I could have done better
even though
I did my best

in retrospect
I followed the letter
that I wrote
that was the test

the great experiment
the innocence
could it be touched
and still maintained

the impossible dream
in dreamers time
in retrospect
it was mine

I live in a mind where anything is possible
you can find me smiling there
even in the face of fear
that smothers dreams in pain
where blind hearts tear at each other
as if love is an ideal out of reach
if only people would really practice what they preach

in retrospect
I failed in depending
even though
I gave my all

in retrospect
love was never ending
as I wrote
life is the fall

the great experiment
the innocence
the openness
the gift of life

the impossible dream
in dreamers time
all we can give
it's where I live

I live in a mind where anything is possible
you can find me smiling there
even in the face of fear
that smothers dreams in pain
where blind hearts tear at each other
as if love is an ideal out of reach
if only people would really practice what they preach

I live in a heart that loves the fall
I live in a soul that gives it all
I live in a passion for innocence
I live in a world of present tense

in retrospect
in dreamers time
here and now
in words that rhyme

rise above all fear
reach right through all pain
touch the innocence
and maintain
touch the innocence
in retrospect
in the present tense
touch the innocence
once again
