This song reminds me of that one line. "I wish there were a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them." -Andy, 'The Office'.

INTRO G D C G C G D TWICE VERSES G D C G C D G D G D C G C D G Chorus C D G Em C D G D C D G Em C D C G I don't want to be the one , imprisoned in an old peoples home , with nothing to do but stare and reminisce, wondering if I had my chance again would I do things just the same or would I make something more of it, and if we only knew where our road was leading to would we have taken the chances that we did , or would we have chosen the easy way in the hopes of a better day, I really have no answers to this. Sometimes I wonder if we'd never met would I have been spared those regrets , or would the story have been near enough the same, Would I have made the same mistakes in a different time and a different place, would I still be the cause of so much pain, and if we only knew where our road was leading to would we have taken the chances that we did , or would we have chosen the easy way in the hopes of a better day, I really have no answers to this. Well I have so many dreams at night where i'm trying hard to put things right , wishing I could change the history , but whats done is done and what's said is said , the bleeding hearts have still been bled , and the only one to blame is me. oh and if we only knew where our road was leading to would we have taken the chances that we did , or would we have chosen the easy way in the hopes of a better day, I really have no answers to this Just like the words to that old song ,you don't know what you've got till it's gone , everything about that is so true , And I don't want to be the one , imprisoned in an old peoples home, I don't want to live lonely without you , oh and if we only knew where our road was leading to would we have taken the chances that we did , or would we have chosen the easy way in the hopes of a better day, I really have no answers , I don't have any answers, I really have no answers to this.

Thank You for this song. I enjoyed listening. It reminds me of a telephone call I received from a friend dying of cancer in an old folks home in Hendon, north London, alone. It must be terrible. It all makes my laundry list of medical woes seem like chicken feed.

Well, I was about to go to bed (long sleepless night, it’s the proverbial 3:30am for me), but saw you’d just uploaded a new original. Always a precious reason to stop what I’m doing, and always glad I did. Such a deep, beautiful song. Your picking is always better than the last, your lyrics always so adept, more thoughtful and relatable with each original you craft… God bless you, Frank Watkinson. 😊

Thank you for sharing a piece of yourself through your music. Through this song, I was able to sense your wisdom, compassion, humility and kindness. Your presentation and expression while playing evokes an extremely emotional response, since you channel your own emotions and feelings into every note that you play. Your music is truly powerful, to the extent that I felt the need to pause for a while after listening to one of your songs, in order to process my own feelings and thoughts. I wish you the best throughout the rest of your journey.
