PERHAPS
SPRING IS SPRAWLING OUT THERE SOMEWHERE
?IN A BIKINI ON A BEACH DRINKING BEER??
TOES IN THE SAND DRINK IN HAND
?WHILE SNOWFLAKES ARE FALLING AND WINTER'S STILL HERE
SOON GOOD OLD SUNNY SUMMER COMES?
AND THEN WHEN IT'S DONE IT'S THE FIRST OF THOSE DAYS?
SWALLOWS ALL GO WHEN CHILLY WINDS BLOW?
NIGHTS ARE LONGER AND TREES TOSS THEIR LEAVES AWAY
IF I TAKE THE TIME TO LOOK AT THE WAKE LEFT BEHIND?DOWN ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE
PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE DONE MORE THAN I DID?
AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN STARS SHONE ABOVE?MAYBE I COULD HAVE SAID MORE THAN I SAID
?TO ALL THOSE I'VE KNOWN AND ALL THOSE I'VE LOVED
LIKE YOUR SHADOW FOLLOWING IN YOUR FOOTSTEPS?YEAH IT CUTS IT'S THE REAPER'S KNIFE?
THE END MY FRIEND IS WAITING THERE?
NO MORE TROUBLE NO MORE STRIFE
OH ALL THE THINGS HAVE BEEN AND GONE
?FACES I'VE SEEN AND THEN SOME
PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE DONE MORE THAN I DID?
AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN STARS SHONE ABOVE?MAYBE I COULD HAVE SAID MORE THAN I SAID?
TO ALL THOSE I'VE KNOWN AN' ALL THOSE I'VE LOVED
SO PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE DONE MORE THAN I DID
?AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN STARS SHONE ABOVE?MAYBE I COULD HAVE SAID MORE THAN I SAID
?TO ALL THOSE I'VE KNOWN AND ALL THOSE I'VE LOVED
PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE YEAH I COULD HAVE
PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE YEAH I COULD HAVE
PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE YEAH I COULD HAVE
PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE YEAH I COULD HAVE
