What If

It was a long slow march out of Eden
We didn't know just what we were leaving
But our curious hearts had us believing
We'd be ok

Along the path we ventured to freedom
For what we seek we had no reason
It was a heart whose doubt was fleeting
That lead us to say

What if we trip
What if we fall
What if we make a mess of it all

What if we throw
A winning race
What if we lose the lead we had gained

What if we trip
What if we fall
But what if we don't

And from a place we knew no needing
It was a comfortable break in the seasons
Was it a fools mistake that had us dreaming
And out on our way

What if we trip
What if we fall
What if we make a mess of it all

What if we throw
A winning race
What if we lose the lead we had gained

What if we trip
What if we fall
But what if we don't

It was the chance we took with which we flirted
And the rush it gave that made it worth it
It is the human in us that makes it perfect
Every time

It was a long slow march out of Eden
We didn't know just what we were leaving
But our curious hearts had us believing
We'd be ok

What if we trip
What if we fall
What if we make a mess of it all

What if we throw
A winning race
What if we lose the lead we had gained

What if we trip
What if we fall
But what if we don't
