Song by Kevin D Stroud/Loosahatchie River Muzic/2018
1st Verse:
Walking these streets downtown today, I’ve never felt this alone.
I remember our days livin’ the high life, now in the wind those days long gone.
Tonight there’s a place I can go, brings out the best in you and me,
Champaign straight from the bottle, singing, dancing memory.
Pre Chorus 1:
Could’ve been us walking down the aisle at the wedding grand ballroom
Like a vivid dream, times come and gone, kissing under that harvest moon.
Chorus 1:
What if I’d asked you to dance instead of walking the other way.
What if I’d opened the door for you, making love in that hallway.
What if I just said that I love you, because life is our true gift.
If I’d popped the question, would you’d said “yes?”
Oh, wouldn’t life be different now, yeah what if…
2nd Verse:
There’s a place we come to in our lives when it’s time to settle down.
Champaign we used to drink now turned to water, best dining there downtown.
After all is said and done, will this lonely ever end?
I wish you’d call me up in the middle of the night and tell me you were coming back again.
Pre Chorus 2:
Could’ve been us walking down the aisle at the wedding grand ballroom
Like a vivid dream, times come and gone, kissing under that harvest moon.
Chorus 2:
What if I’d asked you to dance instead of walking the other way.
What if I’d opened the door for you, making love in that hallway.
What if I just said that I love you, because life is our true gift.
If I’d popped the question, would you’d said, “yes?”
Oh, wouldn’t life be different now, yeah what if…
Bridge:
What if you could change one thing, everything, what would’ve made you say “yes?”
Cause I’m leavin’ this bar without you tonight in a sober mess!
Outro Chorus:
What if I’d asked you to dance instead of walking the other way.
What if I’d opened the door for you, making love in that hallway.
What if I just said that I love you, because life is our true gift.
If I’d popped the question, would you’d said “yes?”
Wouldn’t life be different now, yeah, what if.
What if, yeah what if…
