If I Had A New LIfe

(lyric by rendlub07)

If I had a new life I'd be so much different
I'd roll with the punches and keep my head held high
If I could start over I'd do so much better
I'd make each day better than the ones gone by
I'd be a non-smoker and a nicer guy
I'd have a bigger heart and a stable mind
But it's all so much more than I can be right now

If I had a new life I would be more patient
I could tell what's trivial and what's worth waiting for
If I could turn back time I'd control my anger
I'd dish out less and learn to take much more
I'd work out daily and keep my house clean
I'd be non-divorced and have a college degree
But it's all so much more than I can be right now

CHORUS
So can you wait for another man to rise
From everything that makes you cry
Or if this really is who I am
Is it worth the tears?
Can you reach into my soul and find
The things that make me worth your time?
Cuz I would be the one you fell in love with
If I had a new life

If I had a new life I would be religious
I'd be stronger than the things that broke my faith
If I could push rewind I would let things go
I'd never dwell on things that I can't change
I'd count the blessings that I'd have
I'd smile at you even if I was sad
But it's all so much more than I can be right now

CHORUS

I'm locked in the prison of who I am
With all these traits I don't understand
Say what you want cuz I'm just not sure
I can look in that mirror and it's all a blur
And every damn step I try to take
Just puts me further out of place
And I'm so far gone I might never make it back

And if I had a new life I'd still be in love with you...

CHORUS
