Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, But beautiful old people are works of art. Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is mystery.
Today is a gift.
You re just a thought away. When the world is too confusing, And times are hard to bear, I pull your precious meaning, Your bright spirit, from the air. And if I sometimes drift into a lonely state of mind, I gather up the memories Of the days now left behind. And though you re not beside me, I can tap into my heart And draw upon the warmth and love That now lives while we re apart. Free to fly high above this world.
