Think Before You Leap

I remember the nights I'd sit up late
writing of love and life's painful mistakes.
Wondering where I let my life go wrong
also wondering why I felt I didn't belong.
Maybe it's because I never searched the right place,
maybe it's because I'm always running a race.
Racing threw time, running here and there,
not really looking, and I didn't really care.
I should have been searching the depts of my heart,
I should have known it was a good place to start.
Maybe if I had seached deep down in my soul,
my life would be different,my world would be whole.
Maybe if I would think before I leap,
Maybe I would't be sowing the seeds that I reap.
