BE A NURSE
As I look all around me.
And see how life has changed.
All my younger hopes and dreams.
Have all been rearranged.
I used to want to be a hero.
Fly around just doing good.
Learning as I got older.
To do the things I should.
I never wanted to be famous.
Or own big fancy cars.
Or set foot on the moon,
And study all the stars.
I did not seek out power.
To tell others what to do.
But if I could be like anyone,
I'd want to be like you.
Helping little children.
And some older people too.
If I could go back in time,
I know just what'd I do.
I would not look for diamonds.
Or lots of money in a purse.
I would be the best of heroes.
I would be a nurse all over again.
