Walking in the footsteps I took so long ago
Looking back through years past on what I didn’t know
Pondering life’s meaning, how moments come and go
Feeling all those things now I couldn’t feel back then
Wondering the reason that I am here again
Thinking of the choices, of what else could have been
Letting go of questions of why and how and when
Stepping through the splinters of hurt that still are here
Lighting up past darkness so I no longer fear
Storing up the good things, the moments I hold dear
Turning toward the sunshine so shadows disappear
Walking in new footsteps as future pathways grow
