"I Wonder?"

Sometimes I wonder,

what possibly could have changed.

If I said something different,

if I hadn't been so strange.



Would her thought of me have differed,

would her heart have gone a different way.

Would she be standing right next to me,

in this hour on this day?



Maybe if I had been somewhere,

done something, said something sweet.

Would she be with me now,

would I have swept her off her feet?



I wonder if she would love me,

if I could make the sun go west to east.

Change something I once did,

Cause a past action to cease.



Maybe in the weirdest way,

there's nothing I could do.

To make her change her heart,

to make her say "I love you."



Or maybe in heavens light,

I have already wooed her.

In my mind will always linger,

But I wonder?
