Staring outside my kitchen door
The smell of coffee, that feeling of morning
The sound of your voice, soft in my ear
I've done nothing that deserves being here
I try not to imagine
I try not to regret
I've been thinking of you
Near enough to forget
But the painful sound of the past plays in the back of my mind
And I have to admit, I still listen sometimes

What if I can't change who I was
What if I can't give you real love
Then you look my way and I just say
So what if I can't
So what if I can't
So what if I can't
And what if I can

Now you know where I've come from and I know you don't care
Its in the back of my mind but I can't get back there
And though the past withers away when you look in my eyes
Baby tell me the truth do you see it sometimes

What if I can't change who I was
What if I can't give you real love
Then you look my way and I just say
So what if I can't
So what if I can't
So what if I can't
And what if I can

And I know I'm gonna fall short
Im gonna get back up, and fall some more
But I will fall on your love and I will get back up
You will lift me up

What if I can't change who I was
What if I can't give you real love
Then you look my way and I just say
So what if I can't
So what if I can't
So what if I can't
And what if I can
