What If (Just Jessica Again)

I wanna say yes
I wanna say no
What if I stay where I am
Stick with the plan
What if I go
What if this is my chance
To follow a dream
That I thought was long gone
What if it's not
All its cracked up to be
What if I'm wrong
What if it's too soon
What if it's too late
What if I don't recogonize who I am when I've got a clean slate
What if I fail
What if I fall
What if I risk everything
And I finally sing
Nothing changes at all

When the lights come up
When the symphony plays
Will the voice that's inside
Come alive on that stage
When the curtain lifts up
Will I just play pretend
Do I know how to be
Just Jessica again

I wanna say no
I wanna say yes
What if it's too much to leave
What if it's more than I need
What if i'ts less
Is it dumb to believe
Does it make me naive
Just to give it a try
What if I look like a fool
What if I get there and freeze
What if I fly
What if something starts
What if something ends
What if this is the moment I've asked for
A chance to transcend
What if one call
Is an answer to prayer
It doesn't look how I thought it would look
I admit that I'm scared

When the lights come up
When the symphony plays
Will the voice that's inside
Come alive on that stage
When the curtain lifts up
Will I just play pretend
Do I know how to be
Just Jessica again

Maybe it's selfish or maybe it's just being brave
Change can be daunting but so can just staying the same
And I know it might scare me I know it might sting
And I know that I might fall apart in the wings
And the pain may come out it might burst at the seams and release
When I sing
But I've got to sing

When the lights come up
When the symphony plays
The voice that's inside
Will come alive on that stage
When the curtain lifts up
I won't have to pretend
For a moment I'll be
Just Jessica again
Just Jessica again

What if it's good
What if it's right
What if through all if this darkness I'm finally seeing the light
I wanna say yes
I wanna say yes
I wanna say
Yes, I'll do it
