What if time could rewind
And play back differently
What if I had the right
To alter destiny
If God gave me the power
To change one single day
Never would I have let you fly away.

What if life wasn’t quite
As fragile as a bird
What if fate had to wait
Until I gave the word
If God had even whispered
That I should make you stay
Never would I have let you fly away.

But I never got the whisper,
Or the power, just this once
To make the way it is go back
To be the way it was
I’ll never stop believing
That somewhere you’re all right
But it keeps going through my mind

What if I’d held on tight
Just clung to you somehow
What if you’d held on too
Would you still be here now?
If God gave me the vision
To see the road you’d take
Never would I have let you fly away.
