If I had a choice
Where would I be?
If I had a choice
Would you love me?

If I had a choice to go far away
If I had a choice could I stay?

If I had a choice
To dream and dream
If I had a choice
Would you let me be?

If I had a choice
To walk in the rain
If I had a choice
Could I do it all day?

If I had a choice
To scream and shout
If I had a choice
Could I let it all out?

If I had a choice
To walk naked and bare
If I had a choice
I wouldn’t care
If I had a choice
To cry tears of blood
If I had a choice
Would you clean it up?

If I had a choice
To be hurt inside
If I had a choice
Would you let me cry?

If I had a choice
To be happy and live
If I had a choice
To smile and grin
If I had a choice
To skip around
If I had a choice
To sing out loud

If I had a choice
To be left alone
If I had a choice
To moan and groan
If I had a choice
Wail and cry
If I had a choice
Would you let me die?


If I had a choice
To choose one of these things


If I had a choice…….
What would it be?
