What If

What if somebody told you

that he has found a way

To travel to a certain day

that happened in the past

You could pick a birthday

and change what you had asked

Or go back to that Tuesday

for the love that you threw away

What if somebody told you

that he has found a way

To travel to a certain day

that hasn’t happened yet

You could choose your wedding day

to find out who you’ll wed

Or just some random Sunday

to see if you’re OK

If given the chance, would you?

And if by changing or knowing

All your life is rearranged

How far would you go?

And just how much would you exchanged?

Will you still be who you are

or someone strange and new?

Will you find the answer

or just another clue?

What if somebody told you

that he has found a way

To read the thoughts of someone else

as if to read a book

You could pick a passerby

and simply take a look

Or hope there are no secrets

you lover tucked away

What if somebody told you

that he has found a way

To change the mind of someone else

to fill a want or need

You could sway the point of view

to satisfy your greed

Or play tricks on your partner

to always have your way

If given the chance, would you?

And if by changing or knowing

All your life is rearranged

How far would you go?

And just how much would you exchanged?

Will you still be who you are

or someone strange and new?

Will you find the answer

or just another clue?

What if somebody told you

that he has found a way

To live the life of someone else

and revel in their fame

You could choose the spotlight

and throw away your name

Or you could say “no thank you,

I like my life this way”

I would say “no thank you,

I like my life this way”
