Changes and Regrets

Regretfully

I look towards you

And I wonder what it would have been like

Had we stayed in that place

Never gone to the lake

Would you still look at me now

The way you looked at me before

Maybe

I can only hope so

Last week

I went to see a man of science

And he told me that there is a sign

That maybe we live ontop

Of alternative realities

In which we made different choices

And I like to think that somewhere

Sitting on top of you and me is you and me

Except they did it better than we did

And that they never had that fight

That the other you never changed like you did

And that the other me never went with the other you

To the other lake where the other man was waiting

I'm sorry if that doesn't make sense

Maybe the other me would say it better

Could you imagine if that was true

Can you imagine if we were together
Somewhere just not this here

Regretfully I must inform you

That I don't know for sure if that other place is real

Regrefully I have to say

That we do not live in that other place

That we made our choices
And this is the here and now we get to have

I wish we had never met
No I am glad we did

I wish we had never fallen in love

No I am glad we did

I wish I had never gone to the lake with you

I wish that I never had to watch you change like this
