I often wonder...

I often wonder ....

Had I remembered that a lie is just too hard to remember

Had I not put the first drink to my lips

Had I finished school

Had I not had that first baby so young

Had I remembered that sex isn't love

Had I learned to control my demons

Had I kept my promise and loved her till the oceans cover every
mountain high

Had I kept in touch with friends made over the years

Had I remembered that work is a means to an end; nothing more

Had I not bared my soul would she have stayed with me

Had I not paid attention, would I still be alive

Had I not been so afraid and started my life over sooner

I wouldn't be the man I am today

I often wonder but I would change very little
