In Your Moments Of Maudlin Nostalgia

In your moments of maudlin nostalgia have you shed private tears
As you thought of the past and the long gone happy years
When with your young friends childhood games you did play
In the groves and the parks of the town far away
Until the wanderlust beckoned and you answered it's call
And your friends and original family you farewelled them all
Your future it was for to be lived elsewhere
So you went to see life in the big World out there
The clock on your life does keep on ticking fast
And you often does think of your friends of the past
And wondered about them and of how they might be
It has been many years since them you last did see
The good memories of what was in you does live on
And sometimes you shed private tears for days in the long gone.
