What If

What if, I simply could not hear
All the jokes you tell
To cover up your fears
What if I could only hear your truth
Would I be surprised to hear
You, just you

What if I simply could not see
Your lovely pretty face or your different race
What if I peeked my head around your door
Would I be surprised to see
You
Just You

The sun comes up, you take the stage
And the curtain opens wide
Is your hat on straight do you know your lines
You played your role just fine
Fine, just fine

What if, I simply could not feel
The harsh words that you deal
Or your silence of steel
What if I tiptoed round your shield of thorns
Would I be surprised to feel
You
Just You

You walk backstage, your costume's tight, you got a mind
Throw it aside
You look around, you hesitate
You want to find that stage and scream
I'm here
Or do you dare

What if I simply could not find
Fault with your mistakes
Fault with your mind
What if I first counted all of mine
Would I be surprised to find
You
Hmm
Just you
