Caught a glimpse today from the corner of one eye
A shadow of me thoughtfully walking by
The mirrors of my mind caught reflections as I passed by
Looking through a sea of brine
Casts shadows on this life of mine
Lived my life as I wanted
Snapshots grabbed and mounted
Days once filled with booze and cigarettes
Now clean and positive etiquette
No, no, no regrets
A goddess sent to repair me
Take all the bits and rebuild me
Once with blonde flowing tresses
Now short silver and bright stylish dresses
I'm now the man I want to be
Not modelled as others want to see
Strong, sublime, outward the clown
Inward the critic putting himself down
Lived my life as I wanted
Snapshots grabbed and mounted
Days once filled with booze and cigarettes
Now clean and positive etiquette
No, no, no regrets
Never been one to worship the sun god
Lying on a beach to me seems very odd
Eyes that can see from another's perspective
To carry out their life without directive
Lives apart once lived distantly completed
Together in love entwined as one undefeated
A mountain climbed from depths once dredged
An Everest to face will be for a lifetime alleged
A life once spent swimming against the tide
Now given a chance to brush this aside
Lived my life as I wanted
Snapshots grabbed and mounted
Days once filled with booze and cigarettes
Now clean and positive etiquette
No, no, no regrets
