[Verse 1]
If I told you now
That I didn't have the answers
That I didn't know the reasons
That I didn't hold the key—
If I told you now
That I couldn't say for certain
That I wouldn't break my promise
Could you bear to look at me?
[Verse 2]
If I told you now
That in spite of my persistence
And my confident demeanor
I am more and more in doubt
If I told you now
Would you smile with understanding?
Would you burn with disappointment?
Would you turn and turn me out?
[Bridge]
If I told you now
I suspect you still might say
We've gone too far to change
Or push away the tide
Would you close us down
Or would I get extra points because I tried?
If I tried
If I told you now
That I didn't have the answers
That I didn't know the reasons
That I didn't hold the key—
If I told you now
That I couldn't say for certain
That I wouldn't break my promise
Could you bear to look at me?
[Verse 2]
If I told you now
That in spite of my persistence
And my confident demeanor
I am more and more in doubt
If I told you now
Would you smile with understanding?
Would you burn with disappointment?
Would you turn and turn me out?
[Bridge]
If I told you now
I suspect you still might say
We've gone too far to change
Or push away the tide
Would you close us down
Or would I get extra points because I tried?
If I tried
