Hindsight - A song by Mark.K.Waters

markwaters57@hotmail.co.uk                                                         Hindsight 

Pride comes before a fall

Aint that what people say

I still think forever

Is a heavy price to pay

I was rigid in my thoughts

I was rigid in my plans

Always expecting you to be there

Like TV on demand

Funny how it's all so clear                   

Seeing through hindsight

Or looking from the outside in

To a lighted room at night

Now I'm shouting sorry 

Wanting anyone to hear

But they all turn the other way

Turning a deaf ear

They all saw it coming

They told me more than once

But I thought it was just our way

And not only just my choice 

What happened to second chances
To living -  to fight another day
It's never too late to say you're sorry
Aint that something else -  that people say

Funny how it's all so clear

Seeing through hindsight

Or looking from the outside in 

To a lighted room at night

I was rigid in my thoughts

I was rigid in my plans

Always expecting you to be there

Like TV on demand

Now I'm shouting sorry 

Wanting anyone to hear

But they all turn the other way

Turning a deaf ear

They all saw it coming

They told me more than once

But I thought it was just our way

And not only just my choice 

Funny how it's all so clear

Seeing through hindsight

Or looking from the outside in

To a lighted room at night

Sometimes think it would be easier

I f we all lived  - someone elses life

What happened to second chances
To living -  to fight another day
It's never too late to say you're sorry
Aint that something else -  that people say

Pride comes before a fall
Aint that what people say
I still think forever 
Is a heavy price to pay
