If She Walked Into My Life

Did she need a stronger hand?

Did she need a lighter touch?

Was I soft or was I tough?

Did I give enough, did I give too much?

At the moment that she needed me

Did I ever turn away?

Would I be there when she called

If she walked into my life today?

Did she mind the lonely nights?

Did she count the empty days?

Was I silent, was I cold?

Was I quick to scold was I slow to praise?

And there must have a been a million things

That my heart to forgot to say

Would I think of one or two

If she walked into my life today?

Would I blame the times I pampered her

Or blame the times that I lost her?

What a shame, I never really found the girl

Before I lost her

Were the years a little fast?

Was her world a little free?

Was there too much of a crowd

All too lush and loud and not enough of me?

Though I'll ask my whole life through

What went wrong along the way

Would I make the same mistakes

If she walked into my life today?
