What If

She had me at "hello"
That's how the story starts
I knew she had my heart
With that sweetest smile
And ambient glow

She loves adventures in places unknown
She loves the cold like Christmas in July
She loves to sleep, she hates to cook
I love her so, but she doesn't know

She is my almost "What if"
A love I've hoped to have
A lifetime of eternal bliss
A chance that I have almost missed

Years gone by living different ways
A meeting of chance, another lucky day
A smile, a tease, a flirt, a laugh
All was history and memories of the past

And now as I look into your eyes
No more "What ifs" or "What could have been"
Only the promise of today's, tomorrow's
And the rest of our lives.

She was my almost "What if"
A love I've hoped to have
A lifetime of eternal bliss
A chance that I have almost missed
