Analysis of Past is the Past

Tara Young 1983 (Freehold)



Past is in the Past

Love is love
some people don't know when they have it
Some people don't know when it lost

The past is in the past
Live in the present then behold the future is right near
Except things the way they are , don't fall don't give up
but don't let anything define who you are or want to be

Keep the past in the past

It don't determines who you are now as a person, place or thing.

So let the past stay in the past and move on.
Don't ever look back.
