What If I Told You

From the wreckage of your weather,
From the rubble of your game,
It has finally been pulled back together,
After over a year it still remains the same.

Destroyed by the decisions you made,
The choices you thought were right,
But reassembled by the bricks you laid,
If only you would accept it tonight.

What if I told you that even in death,
It still beats in hope of making a return,
What if I told you it took every last breath,
Just for the chance to yearn;

A chance to yearn for your voice,
To hear the sound that set the rhythm to its pace,
To give life to the dream we made our choice,
The dream you left without a trace.

They still wander in my mind,
Swinging life away,
They are the reason I endure the daily grind,
The ambition that fills my day.

Jeremy's spirit is so free,
And Brayden still calls out his mommy's name,
But he only has a daddy to see,
A daddy whose dream is the same.

What if I told you that I still dream,
Where the boys still live hoping to return,
What if I told you they were as real as they seem,
Holding on for a chance to learn:

To learn that the mommy that left them behind,
Actually never left them alone,
But rather was lost looking to find,
Searching for a better home.

But what if I told you that we could fall right back,
Into the life we left behind,
In the past we could lose track,
To the good times rewind.

Maybe to you this was a waste of time,
To me this couldn't be less true,
For me the only real crime,
Is the time I don't spend with you.

Even though I don't understand love,
I love you,
To say it forever wouldn't be long enough,
As time will never limit my gift to you.
