If Only

The past is done the future a blank canvas

If only I could change it
Revise, rewrite or lose it
Take back, undo, remove it
If only

Lives we've lived are cast in stone
No way to edit or atone
Our only chance to live and learn
Redemption that which we must earn

No guarantee that we will see
The paths we tread to destiny
Around each bend a new reveal
A chance for "if", a brand new deal

Each morning brings a bright new chance
To catch and find our lost romance
Can't change the past of that we know
One choice remains, so forward go

Trust to Fate that she will give
A better life for you to live
And with your soul an open book
Upon true love you'll surely look
