Actions of the Past
Top of Page
  
I held careless all my years
	when young
I cast them to the winds
	and let the past take
		care of its own child
But I was blind when
	I held my actions 
		with a feather's weight
I should have clenched 'em tight
	with a sober grip
		holding on for a pleasent ride
I was such a fool
