Forget The Past The Past

Forget the past the past is forever gone The dead at peace the living must live on The rill downhill to the river ever flow And the people like the Seasons come and go. For our mistakes we can be made to pay But we cannot change what happened yesterday But if we learn from the mistakes we have made 'Tis not too high the price that we have paid. The past is gone and what is done is done Though old men talk of battles lost and won But we should not live our lives in yesterday You win some and you lose some one might say. The past is gone to it why should we cling Of long dead heroes the old songster sing Salute the men and women in their prime Though they too must also bow to father time. Forget the past 'tis gone forever more Like last week's water to the ocean shore And live for today don't look too far ahead 'Tis soon enough we will be with the dead.
