What if...

You will be my what if
The question that haunts my mind
Even as the years go by
Ill never leave you behind

The connection we have
Is like nothing Ive ever felt
Or probably will again
But these are the cards Ive been dealt

You will linger in my heart
A dull ache will always remain
Feelings of true peace
That are wrapped up in the pain

We finally found each other
But it seems it was too late
In another life will I find you in time?
Or is this just our fate?

To forever seek our missing piece
Always a step behind
A bitter and cruel joke
By a universe thats unkind

I dont know how to let you go
When I have waited for so long
Im trying to do the right thing
But walking away feels so wrong

How can anything stand in the way
Of something written in the stars?
Its not supposed to play out this way
This story is supposed to be ours

You're with him but hes not with you
Im alone, which is nothing new
I turn my back when I want to pursue
Cuz I wonder if any of what I'm saying is true
