Don't mess with a past time and place
It's likely to spit and slap your face
It's there for a reason
A reminder good or bad
To learn from an error
To reminisce on a golden treasure
Revisionism leads to misinformation
Those that wrote it first were usually there
Erudite witnesses to significant events
History can be recorded by winners
It can also be ascribed by sinners
Bygone days can be built on in the present
Priceless experience it's foundation stone
Don't worry so much when you're feeling prone
With love on your side you're never alone
