The Things You Didn’t Do
2021©John Schofield

On a restroom wall in Baltimore
Above a broken sink
Someone scratched this message
It’s later than you think

I took this simple line to heart
I knew that it was true
I built myself a little boat
And sailed the ocean blue

You are the captain of your fate
Your only master’s you
Don’t ever let yourself regret
The things you didn’t do
You are the captain of your fate
Your only master’s you
Don’t ever let yourself regret
The things you didn’t do

On a restroom wall in Baltimore
Above a broken sink
Someone scratched this message
It’s later than you think

So go and see the northern lights
Or visit Timbuktu
But better do it now my friend
Time catches up with you

You are the captain of your fate
Your only master’s you
Don’t ever let yourself regret
The things you didn’t do
You are the captain of your fate
Your only master’s you
Don’t ever let yourself regret
The things you didn’t do

The things you didn’t do
