Lyrics

What if I changed my mind to take the bus
The Thursday I was in a rush, 
Would it be so different now?
What if I never saw the advert 
In the disregarded paper,
on the train at Manor House
What if I never sent the letter
Thought that I’d do something better,
Never left my comfort zone 
What if I never got the interview
Decided that I’d start a new 
Never got that job in Holborn
 
What if I made a left
What if I made a right
What if I looked your way
What if I passed you by 
What if the time was right
And it was penned in the stars
What if the earth met Mars
 
What if I never made the party
The Friday that I met you 
Through a friend I knew from work 
What if I never made the phone call
Arranged another meeting, 
would we ever have been hooked
What if we never went out on a date
What if I had turned up late
Where would we be now 
What if I never bought that diamond ring?
Never bent down on my knee?
Never made all those promises
