the life I should have lived

there's a old hound dog 
sleeping in the shade
he's with those kids on the sidewalk
selling their mama's lemonade
on a lazy afternoon
with no reason to be afraid
that's the life I should have lived

there's two young people
a woman and a man
walking by the river
deep in love
holding hands
looking at their future
making lots of plans
that's the life I should have lived
