All This Rocky Ground

I think I failed us both that day

I couldn’t give you what you asked

and sent us down the seperate roads

we’ve traveled ever since

All this rocky ground we’ve covered

I could’ve helped us both avoid

or at the very least provided

a little bit of guidance

had I had the foresight of

the consequences of my choices

It’s far too late to turn back now

no rewinding to that moment

but if I might provide the helping

hand you need to carry through

an offering to offset the trouble

we set in motion

with my words so long ago
