If/Then: A New Musical

What If?
Here's how it starts And here's how it ends Two different hearts Maybe lovers or friends No one knows the ways the long road bends Once every day your life starts again No one can say just how or just when Somehow the world turns inside out and then And then What if? what if you wonder? What if? what if? What if I always belonged in the city the moves me the people who thrill me? The marriage the mortgage I left them behind me before they could kill me The plan was just perfect courageous and daring to start my life new And I look at this morning and it moves me to say "Oh my god what the hell did I do?" I can do this - I know I just need to take care I'm smart, self sufficient and hyper aware Cuz I'm flirting with forty there's no time to wait And I can't help but feel I'm already too late Songtexte Tell me what if I'm bound for disaster, What if I fall off a cliff? Will I ever just learn how to live and not wonder what if? What if? Do I go there with Lucas or stay here with Kate? Why do I do this? obsess and debate? I've been prudent and cautious for all my life long And most of my choices turn out to be wrong Tell me how could this make any difference How could it matter at all? How do I make such a major event out of something so small? Once every day your life starts again No one can say just how or just when Somehow the world turns inside out and then And then What if? what if you wonder? What if? what if? See each choice that you make as kind of a loss Each turn that you take each coin that you toss You lose all the choices you don't get to make You wonder about all the turns you don't take And so what if I've gone there with Lucas? And then what if I'd answered that phone? Think of all of the things you'd have done If only you'd known Here's how it starts And here's how it ends What if I'd gone there with Lucas? Two different roads And how each one bends What if I stayed there with Kate? And then What if? What if? What if? What if I knew? what will I do? What if I choose will I change things forever? If I leap will I fall of a cliff? If you choose then there's no turning back no turning back no turning back And you wonder what if? What if? (Thanks to Ryan for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
