Lyrics of The Actors

Long long ago
So far far away
When life was so simple
When life was a play
Tomorrow did not matter
We lived for today

We were the actors
The world was our stage
We each had a script
We all turned a page

The suspense, the drama
The comedy too
We can now share the memories
Of all we've been through

Life is the play
And we are the actors
Memories are created
And we are the benefactors.

The friends we had
The friends we lost
Where are they now?
What was the cost?

Late in the evening
When I'm sitting down
The thoughts I have
Are all spinning around
Concerned am I
I begin to fretter
Did I do good?
Could I have done better?

Life is the play
And we are the actors
Memories are created
And we are the benefactors.

Don't dwell on the past
For it has gone away
We are the actors
Life is the play

Look to tomorrow
For it will soon be today
