What if...

What if

I kissed your lips

And held your face

What if

The pain, the tears, the past

Could all be erased

What if

A minute became an hour

An hour became a day

What if

The love we thought was gone

Was only a whisper away

What if

The whisper became a shout

And finally exposed what you're about...

What if

The lies, the game, the tears

Were only a front for the fear

What if

I realized the price I paid was too high a cost 

and despite what you think you've gained

The truth is that you lost...
