Lyrics

What Could Be
K. Pearlman

I see it clearly in my mind
In comes negative like a bully 6’3”
They’re so inferior side by side
Good old will can take him any day

What would it be if everything turned out all right
Wouldn’t we all be happy
What would it be if everything turned out all wrong
Where would we be then?

We’re so habitual like the day
In stormy weather we brace ourselves for the worse to come
Sometimes it takes a different path
Leaves untattered and roots still in the ground

What would it be if everything turned out all right
Wouldn’t we all be happy
What would it be if everything turned out all wrong
Where would we be then?

I heard yesterday we are born with feelings
How do we know at that age what it means
It takes a lifetime and then another
To find out that we’ve known it all along

What would it be if everything turned out all right
Wouldn’t we all be happy
What would it be if everything turned out all wrong
Where would we be then?
Where would we be then?
Where would we be then?
