If only then...

By: Christina Marie Wilkins

If only I'd made the right decision that night,
maybe things now would let me feel right.
I messed everything up
when I chose the one I thought "might,"
but what I did was choose
the one that "might not."
If only my mind had been right,
you would have been the one that night.
I wish that you and I could be
like you and I should been been.
He made me think things were alright,
you let me know to hold on tight.
I let you go away,
but now I wish you'd come back and stay.
You made me smile, he made me wonder a while.
Why didn't he tell me there was another?
I'm sure that you would have!
He made my life a troubled hell,
you made it a day that went so well.
If only then... you instead of him...
