Last night while I lay thinking here,
“what ifs” crawled inside my ear.
Prancing and partying all night long,
singing their same old, “what if” song.
What if I grow up and feel alone?
What if my heart turns into stone?
What if my dreams fade away?
What if I’m stuck in yesterday?
What if the sun began to fall?
What if there’s no one left to call?
What if the stars refused to shine?
What if my fate is never mine?
What if my dog were here to stay?
What if he hadn’t gone away?
What if I scream but no one hears?
What if I drown inside my fears?
Everything seems swell.
Then the night-time “what ifs” come again!
