What if I ran to you
In the middle of the night
What if I couldn't make it
What if I deserted you
In the middle of a fight
What if I couldn't take it
What if you loved me more
On a midsummer night's eve
What if I couldn't top it
What if you found romance
with a girl who isn't me
What if I couldn't stop it
What if my heart tore its seams
Inside my growing chest
What if I couldn't sew it
