what if? Songtext
von Yōko Takahashi

(What if we) just hadn′t said goodbye?
(Would your love now) have been as good as mine?
(Would I still think) love is impossible to find?

I'm not one to live in the past
But memories come flooding back
When I think of you
It′s hard for me to just deny
That you could have changed my life

There's still this mystery
That's hanging over me
Looks like I′ll never find out

(What if we) just hadn′t said goodbye?
(Would your love now) have been as good as mine?
(Would I still think) love is impossible to find?


Now you say your life has changed
And seeing you this time is strange
But I wonder how
We'd be second time around
But we′ll never know 'cause
You′ve found a lover to
Do things I wish I could
And I'm left wondering why

(What if we) just hadn′t said goodbye?
(Would your love now) have been as good as mine?
(Would I still think) love is impossible to find? Oh

(What if we) just hadn't said goodbye?
(Would your love now) have been as good as mine?
(Would I still think) love is impossible to find?

I used to promise myself that everything I wished for
Would have the chance of coming to me
But if you let it go
Maybe you'll never know
That it may be the one thing that could change your life

There′s still this mystery
That′s hanging over me
Looks like I'll never find out

I thought I′d lived my life with no regrets
Would never look back and yet
One thing I will never know


(What if we) just hadn't said goodbye?
(Would your love now) have been as good as mine?
(Would I still think) love is impossible to find? Oh

(What if we) just hadn′t said goodbye?
(Would your love now) have been as good as mine?
(Would I still think) love is impossible to find?
