I used to contemplate - how blue was the sky Went fishing in the creek - that ran on by I had the sunshine - and my beautiful girl …But I gave them up, to have the world Even if I would, should I? Even if I should, could I? Am I too far gone along life’s lines To ever travel back to my youth Are the Simpler Times a fancy or the truth? The wonders I have seen - too many to count There were no obstacles – I could not surmount So many kisses – they all merge in my mind …Never thought I’d love, this trav’lin’ blind Even if I would, should I? Even if I should, could I? Am I too far gone along life’s lines To ever travel back to my youth Are the Simpler Times a fancy or the truth? I love the life I have, not the one I wished My heart has led the way, every day’s a gift Good friends and fam’ly, Line my plentiful road …Cause I caught the wind, and that’s how I blow Even if I would, should I? Even if I should, could I? Am I too far gone along life’s lines To ever travel back to my youth Are the Simpler Times a fancy or the truth? Or the truth Or the truth
