There are paths you choose along the way But don't you wonder "what might have been" If you knew then what you know today Don't you wonder "what might have been " If you'd kissed that boy forever If you hadn't lost the job in the café If you'd gotten it together Or if you had thrown it all away All the lessons learned All the fingers burned All the troubles you got out of or got in Don't you wonder sometimes " what might have been" Do your sit sometimes and think about Where you could be now. If the twists were turns, if the ins were out Where you could be now If you'd hitchhiked out of town If you hadn't had that extra gin Settled for or settled down If you hadn't listened to the little voice within The loves that made you fall The nights you wowed them all The times you took it on the chin Don't you wonder sometimes What might have been. But at the time you never see it How all the doors get opened You've make your choice you think you know the way You discover later that the smallest thing can change it Leading you to where you are today. So when you're looking back At luck or destiny Remember each day is a new way to begin Some day you'll be looking back here And will you wonder? What might have been
