In the End

And if you could see your hand
That would help you understand
All the things that we endured
To be here right now
On the way I lost some dreams
Shattered other people's too
Those remaining are my friends
And they light a trail to you

And if you could plainly see
What was occurring round the bend
Would it really change what happens in the end

Once I loved a woman so
I asked her to be my wife
Now that love is indifferent
For those years did I waste my life

If we saw what was to be
Would we just avoid the debris
We're here to make our own mistakes
And for that we've got to be free

And if you could plainly see
What was occurring round the bend
Would it really change what happens in the end

Am I too philosophical
Should I look into a crystal ball
Am I being too quizzical
Or should I trust in fate

And if you could see your hand
That would help you understand
All the things that we endured
To be here right now
And if you could plainly see
What was occurring round the bend
Would it really change what happens in the end

Would it really change what happens in the end
