**Verse 1** It’s been a while now, Long enough to say things changed. We found new rhythms, new conversations, Learned how to act like we’re okay. I don’t ache the way I used to, I don’t rewind every word you said, But some nights my mind drifts back To places I swore I’d left. **Pre-Chorus** I don’t live there anymore, But sometimes I still visit. **Chorus** What if we could go back in time, Before we knew better, before the lines? Would we do the same things, say the same lies, Or finally admit what we kept inside? Would nothing change, would we play it safe, Or would we cross that line we were afraid to name? I don’t need the answer — I just wonder sometimes… What if we did? **Verse 2** We talk like people who survived it, Like it was just another year. But there was something real between us, Even if it never lived out here. I don’t regret the way it felt, I regret the timing, that’s the truth. Two people doing their best Not to fall into something they already knew. **Pre-Chorus** I tell myself it’s better now, But that doesn’t stop the questions. **Chorus** What if we could go back in time, Before restraint became our guide? Would we still pretend we didn’t feel it, Or finally stop running from the fire? Would we walk away the same again, Or let it become more than friends? I don’t need the answer — I just wonder sometimes… What if we did? **Bridge** Maybe the “what if” is part of the cost, Of doing the right thing and still feeling the loss. Some doors are closed for a reason, it’s true, But that doesn’t mean I never think about you. **Final Chorus** What if we could go back in time, Knowing what we know now? Would we be braver, or just smarter, Or still end up right here somehow? I’ve made my peace, I’ve learned to live, But every now and then my mind still slips. I don’t need the answer — it’s just a passing thought… What if we did? **Outro** It’s been months now, And everything’s changed… But some questions don’t need answers To still remain.
