Iedereen denkt wel eens, wat als ik nou die beslissing had genomen, wat als ik dat of dat niet had gedaan. Het is nutteloos, maar onvermijdelijk: we zijn nu eenmaal mensen. Is het spijt, is het melancholie, is het een brandend verlangen dat maar niet verdwijnt? Kate Winslet zong er het mooi What if over…
What if – Kate Winslet
Here I stand alone
With this weight upon my heart
And it will not go away
In my head I keep on looking back
Right back to the start
Wondering what it was that made you change
Well I tried
But I had to draw the line
And still this question keeps on spinning in my mind
What if I had never let you go
Would you be the man I used to know
If I’d stayed
If you’d tried
If we could only turn back time
But I guess we’ll never know
Many roads to take
Some to joy
Some to heart-ache
Anyone can lose their way
And if I said that we could turn it back
Right back to the start
Would you take the chance and make the change
Do you think how it would have been sometimes
Do you pray that I’d never left your side
What if I had never let you go
Would you be the man I used to know
If I’d stayed
If you’d tried
If we could only turn back time
But I guess we’ll never know
If only we could turn the hands of time
If I could take you back would you still be mine
‘Cos I tried
But I had to draw the line
And still this question keep on spinning in my mind
What if I had never let you go
Would you be the man I used to know
What if I had never walked away
‘Cos I still love you more than I can say
If I’d stayed
If you’d tried
If we could only turn back time
But I guess we’ll never know
We’ll never know
