DIFFERENTLY
When I close my eyes
I see you smiling in that white shirt
Part of me still dies
When I remember that it’s you I hurt
If I could start again, it’d be right then
The moment I first realized you were beautiful
So memorable
If I hadn’t held my head so high
Maybe just given one more try
Would I be here still wondering why
So many years since that goodbye?
If I could take the ride again
Start off when you were just a friend
Steer us away from that dead end
You would be here with me
Cause I’d have done things differently
Differently
I’d have climbed your wall
Talked to you until you let me in
If I’d have known at all
The pain of wondering now what could have been
If I’d have seen somehow what I see now
I would have asked you why you weren’t there for me
Did you want to be?
If I hadn’t held my head so high
Maybe just given one more try
Would I be here still wondering why
So many years since that goodbye?
If I could take the ride again
Start off when you were just a friend
Steer us away from that dead end
You would be here with me
Cause I’d have done things differently
Differently
We could have talked it through
Before I’d given up on you
And thrown out what was written in the stars
And I’ll be haunted by
These questions till the day I die
And you and I will always share these scars.
If I hadn’t held my head so high
Maybe just given one more try
Would I be here still wondering why
So many years since that goodbye?
If I could take the ride again
Start off when you were just a friend
Steer us away from that dead end
You would be here with me
Cause I’d have done things differently
If I could take the ride again
Start off when you were just a friend
Steer us away from that dead end
You would be here with me
Cause I’d have done things differently
You would be here with me
Cause I’d have done things differently
You would be here with me
Cause I’d have done things differently
