Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I look back on those winding roads,
The highs and lows, where my heart once strode,
Through the ups and downs, I lived so wild,
Chasing dreams with the spirit of a child.
I've danced on the edge of ecstasy fair,
But oh, the shadows linger in the air,
Memories rush like a river so wide,
I've weathered storms on this roller coaster ride.
[Chorus]
I've known the magic, I've known the pain,
The sunshine and rain, again and again,
It's been a journey, a story to tell,
But when I look back, at the times I fell.
I wouldn't want to do it again,
Not the heartache, not the bends,
It's been a ride, a soulful blend,
But oh, my friend, I wouldn't do it again.
[Verse 2]
I climbed the mountains, felt the fall,
Had my share of dreams, oh, I had it all,
But every high had a shadow beneath,
In the echoes of laughter, I found disbelief.
Through the valleys deep, I wandered alone,
Seeking solace in the whispers of home,
With every heartbeat, I learned to survive,
But the scars remind me how hard I had to strive.
[Chorus]
I've known the magic, I've known the pain,
The sunshine and rain, again and again,
It's been a journey, a story to tell,
But when I look back, at the times I fell.
I wouldn't want to do it again,
Not the heartache, not the bends,
It's been a ride, a soulful blend,
But oh, my friend, I wouldn't do it again.
[Bridge]
So here's to the moments that shaped who I am,
To the laughter and tears, to the rise and the slam,
Every heartbreak, every tear that I've shed,
Has painted the picture of a life that I've led.
But if I had the choice, if I could rewind,
I'd cherish the beauty without the grind.
[Outro]
So I close my eyes, thankful, yet wise,
Embracing the now, as the past slowly lies,
With hope in my heart and peace in my soul,
I carry these lessons, they make me whole.
But looking ahead, I'm ready to fly,
Once more on this journey, but oh, my, oh my,
I wouldn't want to do it again.
