Story behind the song
Wise thoughts and good advice to myself from when I was twenty something. I still agree, but have not always been true to them...
Lyrics
Though no-one would say you can bring back the past Apparently sometimes you'd like it to last When sometimes the present gets boring and grey You tend to turn your attention to previous days Then back in the world to which once you belonged everything seems so right; nothing is wrong But what have you learned from your trips back in time? Only that things that you've lost won't ever be found There are certainly moments of pleasure to come But when you recognise them, they're already gone Our memory gives us a different view And I'm afraid not always entirely true So don't attempt to make it the way it has been by trying to set up some yesterday's scene No days will be better that those you recall The secret lies in never comparing at all
