Chelonia

If I could take back the toys that I broke Maybe I'd learn to take care of what's fragile Cherish what's precious and handle with care Hold on to moments I thought we would share If I brushed my teeth in circles at night Maybe I'd learn to get the small things right Take pride in myself, keep everything bright Would you have stayed and want to hold me tight? If I did my homework instead of watch TV Maybe I'd learn more about responsibility Focus on my future, where I want to be Would you have stayed here and be so proud of me? If I played soccer on a team just like you Maybe I'd learn how to see my goals through Commit to the game, give it all I could do Would you have stayed, and watched me play like you? If you could be here all those times that I've cried Would you have let me and give me advice? So much for advice Well, I graduated high school I'm in university You should see all my friendships And memories I keep I wish you could have met them And could see how I've grown When I needed you most I had to grow on my own
