Here I Go Again

 By Bruce Clifford

Another change in direction
Time to raise the sail
Every time looking for perfection
Never looking to fail

Another attempt at living
Islands and the waves
Each time I end up giving
With nothing left to save

Here I go again
Another trip
Another ride

Here I go again
Taking up learning
Testing my pride

Another change in seasons
Time to count the cost
Every time looking for reasons
Forgetting what’s been lost

Another attempt at giving
Sunshine and the breeze
Each time I end up forgiving
It never comes with ease
