What If 05:19
Verse 1: What if I was wiser Had found the words to say To pull you through those struggles That you go through every day But my message is forgotten Empty words upon a screen What if I was closer Could hold you in my arms And protect you from a world that's full of Tragedy and harms Oh I tried to be there for you Was as close as I could be Pre Chorus 1: But instead I flew back home alone My heart was torn in two And it's taken me till now to see I'm not the one for you And though things may change in time I think for now I'm moving on And the words they finally flow enough To help me sing this song Chorus: And I Am not quite sure just what’s wrong with me (It’s hard to see) And I Know now it just won't work with you and me (It sets me free) But if I Can’t find a way to understand myself How can I give The life I live To someone else Verse 2: What if I was better Would that have made things change With all these twists and turns It's like my life's beenre-arranged And after all of this I don't know What I'm feeling anymore What if things were different What if we had met before 'Cause by the time I came upon you You had gone and shut the door So I'm staring through the window And my heart's upon the floor Pre Chorus 2: But instead of standing there just dreaming Of what might have been I'll forget about the past and Do my best to try again And though things may change in time I think for now I'm moving on And the words they finally flow enough To help me sing this song

Verse 1 Tearing out this page It’s so hard to write Try to block out these thoughts in my mind Wonder if they’ll fade These memories of mine Maybe they will wear over time Pre-Chorus I often find myself thinking of you from time to time Chorus Remember back to all those summers Where we would spend all day Stay up late and talk for hours Always knew just what to say But then you went and found another What we had is dead and gone Although I think I’m starting to Finally move on Verse 2 I know you’ve got your friends You know that I’ve got mine I look forward to seeing them online But you’re never there I wait for a sign I just keep telling myself I’m doing fine Bridge I can’t deny what I felt inside But I think it’s time I finally moved on And I wonder when I’ll see you again Where have you gone

Verse 1: I can't tell you when it started in my mind When my thoughts would drift to you from time to time But now it's slowly getting worse It's like I'm trapped under a curse A caring hand upon this lonely heart of mine straight into Verse 2: She seems so close, but she's so far away And I never feel that I can find the words to say But I don't want to break this spell Or let these feelings just dispell But all that I can do is take things day by day Chorus: Can't you see This feeling's killing me The words I say are never right I try and try most every night So know That I can't let this go But I'm not ready for this love to start I want the words to be as clear As a crystal heart Verse 3: If she were e'r to say that she was mine Then I would be there for her till the end of time But I can't tell her in the end That I want more than just a friend That I'm just searching for some refuge or a sign [chorus] Bridge: Cause it isn't like I haven't felt this way before But all those feelings did was leave me broken on the floor So now I'm fearing that this love will end the same Standing alone, my tears mixing with the rain [chorus] Outro: I can't tell you when it started in my mind When I wanted to be with her until the end of time...

about

What If is the spiritual successor to my song Crystal Heart. It's the only song that I've written this entire year. It's been a long one for me, but with this done I think I'm ready to face the next one.

It's a song about looking back and thinking how we could have changed things, and attempting to move on. I hope you guys enjoy it.
