I sent my West Virginia Buddy Terry Burdette some lyrics I wrote a while back....to see if he would want to do a cowrite with me.....this is a song of reflecting back on old lovers and what could have been.....Terry is a very talented songwriter and he really blew me away with what he came up with....I hope all of ya'll enjoy this song and maybe it will bring back some fond memories of long lost loves of long ago!

Sometimes I let my mind take a stroll down memory lane
But I can’t dwell there to long cause it’ll only cause me pain
She’s a bittersweet reminder of a love that slipped away
Deep inside I know I loved her and it still haunts me to this day
Chorus
Lord I never shoulda let you walk away
Coulda had your love but my fear got in the way
We woulda been the best of lovers and friends
But now your just a memory of what shoulda...coulda...woulda been
Was I just too selfish thinking only about me
A young soldier tied to Uncle Sam but one day I would be free
But you were ready to settle down..Lord it scared me to no end
I should have listened to my heart.. cause I can’t bring you back again
Chorus
I guess we all have our regrets we carry from the past
I should have held to that first love just like it was my last
Does she ever think about me and our love so long ago?
It’s just water underneath the bridge but there’s one thing that I know
Chorus
