WHAT IF?

Welcome back to the Lovers' Hour Here on BBC Radio 12 I'm your host, Ollie Cromwell It's a beautiful sunny day here in London City It's about 12,000 degree It's incredible that anybody's got anything to complain about But we've got some callers on the line We wanna hear from you, who you loving? Who you kissing? Who you missing? What's on your mind, caller?' For the last five years, love's always been hypothetical What if I maybe met the one? What if I maybe messaged you? What if you Scooby Doo me Ghost me after my confessional? What if I'm the one they laugh about Inside their message group? Heart-react your every story Screenshot my every move Send them to the girlies just to file 'em alphabetical Label me a creep, like I'm the one to teach a lesson to What if I'm overthinking? Lots of people been susceptible What if I really like you but my past has made me skeptical? What if you got a fella and he's mad because I'm pressin' you? What if your fella's cheatin', think that I could come and rescue you? What if you made them eyes at me while mine had been undressing you? What if I gave it time And put them worries to the side And then I really got to know ya? Then I really made you mine And then we planned our ever after Bassinets and overtime To put a payment on a gaff To get the one you really like And then I tell ya that I love ya Every morning, every night And then we raise a couple kids And teach 'em how to ride a bike And then I come back unannounced Cos' it's your birthday just to find You in my bed with someone else Now wouldn't that be a surprise? What if? What if? What if? What if? What if I could Tell you how I'm thinking when I'm lost? What if I could? Be the one to tell you I'm there What if I could? Tell you no one really compares To you Baby I'm just scared, I'd be letting you down What if I'm wrong? I mean, it's all just theoretical What if I broke your heart cos' I would rather chase my revenue? What if I called it quits cos' I could see how I was stressing you? What if I cut it off cos' of an imbalance of chemicals? Problem was the doctor didn't dose me up a decimal Memory is malleable It's crazy what depression do Make you think you're crazy Make you want someone to section you Keep you in my head, forget to tell you when the rent is due Making all the chatter in your brain turn up a decibel Make it really easy to forget the ones that's blessin' you Take 'em all for granted til there's really no one left but you They're better off without me? Nah That's what depression says to you Hmm What if? What if? What if? What if I could Tell you how I'm thinking when I'm lost? What if I could? Be the one to tell you I'm there What if I could? Tell you no one really compares To you baby I'm just scared, I'd be letting you down What if I said I'm sorry? Would you think that's unacceptable? What if I made the effort just to get the know the better you? What if I took a chance in spite of all the things I said to you? Squeeze ya like a tourniquet In turn I'll make you better too Can't predict the future, life will go the ways it's destined to Dwellin' on the past will only feed all that regret in you The present's all we have so you should live it while you can And when your life comes to an end At least it never got the best of you Love don't really break, in time you'll find that love is bendable I know you'd probably rather find somebody who's dependable How's about I kill the doubt and be a man and message you? Just to see you blocked me, guess that's to be expected Hmm
