What If

I love the way that you wear on your sleeve
All that you feel in your heart
You said you love how I'm so rock steady
An anchor for you from the start
It felt like we fit perfectly
The yin and the yang, you and me

Well, time went on by and as two became one
Some freedoms were caught in the mix
Instead of embracing what makes us so different
Seems this is what we tried to fix
A vision of what we'd wanna see
Some mold of who we should be

But we can't keep on thinking the essence of who we are
Oh, can change easily
What if I try and let you just be you
As long as you let me be me

Oh, remember that's how we began
Oh, what if we said that we can

You have your wants and I have mine
Well, we both have to find compromise
But trying too much to be who we're not
Is just a version of us in disguise

You're type A and I'm type B
And together we just had to see
What it'd spell when the honeymoon period ended
In our new reality
What first seemed to fit like a glove
This magical gift of our love

But we can't keep on thinking the essence of who we are
Oh, can change easily
What if I try and let you just be you
As long as you let me be me

Oh, remember that's how we began
Oh, what if we said that we can

I still love the way that you wear on your sleeve
All that you feel in your heart
