[Intro] What if... what if... [Verse 1] I took that left instead of right that rainy April night Would the streetlights still remember my face? Packed a bag for somewhere warm, chased a dream without a fight Would the silence be kinder in that place? You laughed and said forever's just a word we throw around I believed it then, but time has made it clear Every door I didn't knock, path I didn't take, Sounds of footsteps walking out of here [Pre-Chorus] And I keep replaying scenes that never played Like film strips burning in the rain [Chorus] What if I chose different? What if I stayed? Would the colors be brighter or just fade away? What if your hand was still the one in mine? Would we be laughing in some other life? What if... what if... I wasn't the one who said goodbye [Verse 2] Maybe I'd be living in a house with creaky floors Kids drawing on the walls with crayon dreams Or maybe I'd be wandering empty hotel corridors Chasing dreams of what might have been I see you sometimes in the corner of my eye A figure in every crowd that looks like you Wonder if you're wondering the same things late at night If there's a version where we made it through [Pre-Chorus] And every road I took still leads me back To questions I can't answer, tracks I can't unpack [Chorus] What if I chose different? What if I stayed? Would the colors be brighter or just fade away? What if your hand was still the one in mine? Would we be laughing in some other life? What if... what if... I wasn't the one who walked away [Bridge] Maybe the grass is greener on the side I never saw Or maybe it's just weeds and broken straw But in the quiet hours when the world's asleep I let the what-ifs in, and they cut so deep [Final Chorus] What if I chose different? What if I tried? Would the stars align or would we still collide? What if I held on tighter to the flame? Would it burn the same or call my name? What if... what if... This isn't how it ends? [Outro] What if... What if... I still wonder...
