If I Could Rewind
If only I could rewind and go back in my mind
Seek it out then destroy would I truly enjoy
Would my life now be good like I feel that it should
Or would things just get worse am I blessed am I cursed
Will things settle and go will my happiness grow
Or will things get real bad making me very sad
To rewind in my mind might well make me unkind
Maybe leave it alone and rejoice not condone
Sometimes you're better off where you are
Don'y look back you may go far
Life's a gamble choose your way well
What will happen time will tell
If I rewind my heart would it feel torn apart
Would the heartache it holds disappear or twofold
Would I feel some release maybe panic would cease
Or would things just get worse am I blessed am I cursed
Will I find myself love and then reach on above
Or will my heart still ache through the choices I make
To rewind my heart might well tear me apart
Maybe leave it alone and rejoice not condone
Sometimes you're better off where you are
Don'y look back you may go far
Life's a gamble choose your way well
What will happen time will tell
If I rewind my life would it free me from strife
Would my fears melt away leave me happy today
Would my happiness flow if my memories go
Or would things just get worse am I blessed am I cursed
Will I ever be free to truly know me
Or will life carry on without rhyme or reason
To rewind my life would I not be a wife
Maybe leave it alone and rejoice not condone
