One Year Later

Wandering the K-10 as anniversaries end
Pondering events that brought us here
If anyone remembers when
Around the world and back again
Was a dream not quite so clear?
Overwhelms
Over the hills and away
Not a mistake

Did that straight and narrow
Nailed self-righteous arrow
Get to be so decadent?
Could you trade your lessons
To have grown up in the process?
Remarks never relent

Learned by your examples
And we learned by your mistakes
Argue our positions
It's a decision, we have to make
It's not a mistake

If we had known what we know now
One year later, we'd still be around

Got your full attention
Over hours of speculation
Don't you know who knows? I know
Finally make decisions
Finally work it out
Finally let it go

We're not running backwards
Don't you know
That we love reunion shows
This is not a swan song but it goes

If we had known what we know now
One year later, we'd still be around

If we had known what we know now
One year later, we'd still be around
Around, around
