Five For Fighting – What If lyrics

Threw a line out to pull you to me
If you don’t get it, then you don’t get it
You made your mind up before you knew me
If you don’t get it, then you don’t get it

Take my hand for a minute
We’re in it, imagine all the
Pain that might be forgiven

What if I had your heart?
What if you wore my scars?
How would we break down?
What if you were me and what if I were you?
What if you told my lies?
What if I cried with your eyes?
Could anyone keep us down?
What if you were me and what if I were you?

Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
Ooh ooh ooh-ooh

Had a dream of a new tomorrow
If you don’t get it, then you don’t get it
I took a step up and you might follow
If you don’t get it, then you don’t get it

Take a chance for a minute
Jump in it, imagine if you
Asked yourself for a minute

What if I had your heart?
What if you wore my scars?
How would we break down?
What if you were me and what if I were you?
What if you told my lies?
What if I cried with your eyes?
Could anyone keep us down?
What if you were me and what if I were you?

Ooh-ooh-ooh (x2)

[Middle 8]
To the ones who make it better
Vying to get out, got to touch the other side
What if all that it took to save our lives
Together was to rise up

What if I had your heart?
What if you wore my scars?
How would we break down? (Break down?)
What if I were you?
What if I told your lies?
What if you cried with my eyes?
Could anyone keep us down?
What if you were me and what if I were you?

What if your hand was my hand?
Could they hold on or let go?
What if your love was my life?
Could they love what we don’t know?
What if your hand was my hand?
Could we hold on or let go?
What if your love was my life?
And what if I were you?
