Post 626: If i Changed One Thing (1/27/13)

If I Changed One Thing (1/27/13 c,w)

Here I stand, I stand

In the shadows, in the shadows of my broken dreams

Haunted, haunted by a past that can never be

Gone before, before its time 

(Looking in at me

Looking in at all that I thought I would be

There’s so much I would change

Think how different life, life could be

If I changed, if I changed one thing)

Maybe if I could have held on

Held on to the one more closely

If only I tread the minefield of love far more, far more carefully

Maybe I would still be with the one I swore I was meant to be

 

(Chorus)

There is so much, so much in life I failed

Maybe there was something different I could have done

To see my dreams availed

(chorus)

 

How would my life have turned out to be

If I could have, if I could have lived it differently

Only if it was, was one thing

 

(chorus)
