No Regrets
Jayne Nelsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Providing for a family of five
And the values he lived by
He instilled in me
He taught me the measure of someone
Is where they stand and who they love
You'll never be better
And I'm running after crazy dreams
And all that matters is everything
The people that I love
And the faces that I've met
And I've made my share of fools mistakes
But that all comes with chasin' fate
If I never make it there, well atleast
I can say
No regrets
I put my time in on the road
Rolled with the punches and took some blows
And found myself in Memphis, New Orleans and LA
And I tripped up a time or two
And fell in love with someone new
Prince charming, I've lost a few along the way
And I'm running after crazy dreams
And all that matters is everything
The people that I love
And the faces that I've met
And I've made my share of fools mistakes
But that all comes with chasin' fate
If I never make it there, well atleast
I can say
No regrets
Bridge:
No regrets when this journey ends
No regrets, this is who I am
And I'm running after crazy dreams
And all that matters is everything
The people that I love
And the faces that I've met
And I've made my share of fools mistakes
But that all comes with chasin' fate
If I never make it there, well atleast
I can say
If I never make it there, well atleast
I can say
No regrets
