What If (a song)

What if dreams came true
if you just wanted them to,
and what if stars could fly
into you when you die?

What if everything
were black and white
and brilliant colors faded
from your heart's sight?

I want to know
someone tell me
what if the secrets
aren't meant to be?
I want to know
I really do
if it doesn't matter
then what to do?

What if the ceaseless motion
just leads to more of that?
What if you want so much to,
but never get to bat?

What if all the rain
in this world,
won't grow your love,
and passion just spins you into a whirl?

I want to know
someone tell me
what if the secrets
aren't meant to be?
I want to know
tell me true
if it doesn't matter
then what to do?

Stop, for a while
sit, for a while
breathe, for a while
and help me see.

What if all the tiaras in the world
can only beauty take?
What if it really is
about the love we make?

What if time is wasting
and here we are apart?
It can take days and years to
create that sort of art . . .

I want to know
someone tell me,
what if the secrets
aren't meant to be?
What if I come running back to me,
What if I don't like what I see,
What will I say to her if she,
keeps on asking "what if?"
