For All The Good Times

Here I am laying around thinking, that life is pretty okay

That my world is a good place to be,

And I wanted to write down how I’m feeling today

To take out on bad days, as a reminder to me.

I’ve written many times about the tears I’ve shed

And those tears were usually about you,

But I may not have written about the happy times

As there were plenty of those times too.

Like my engagement ring stuffed in a lolly box

And from that day on, worn with a smile,

Or a bunch of flowers so unexpectedly received

When an injury laid me up for awhile.

Or a dinner of fish and chips in a WA resort

Eaten off newspaper sitting on the beach,

A meal in a restaurant called ‘Dirty Dicks’

Not all that cheap but within our reach.

A single flower would occasionally arrive at work

And I remember those hung-over Sunday’s in bed,

A friend’s greasy dinner on Sunday night

While a full on drumming band played in your head.

Now that we no longer share any ties

Our memories are the best that we’ll get,

Though it hurts how much I miss you

It was all too good to regret.
