If's And Buts

If I'd not met you in 71,

I wouldn't be having all this fun.

But I caught that train in 82,

And moved so far away from you.

When I found a love In 83,

It saw the end of you and me.

But I told her back in 94,

I couldn't love her anymore.

But I lived alone in 95,

Determined that I would survive

But life was tough in 96,

I kept on going for the kids.

If I'd not been strong in 97,

I maybe watching you from heaven.

But I found your number In 98, 

And discovered It was not too late.

It took a while but In 99,

I found you waited all that time.
