about

When I was a kid, I read The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis. Something Aslan said has always stuck with me, a kind of commandment which I confess to have broken many times when feeling sorry for myself: "Never think of what might have been."

It scares me to think that I might never have met Elyce.

lyrics

If - song by Elyce & Benjamin Russell (socan)

What if you were never here?
If you pulled the thread, where would that have led?
Maybe you were born instead
In a good fam’ly, would you be happy?

What if you were not afraid?
If you started strong, where would you belong?
Would that make our love be wrong?
Or even exist - what would we have missed?

If you never knew me, how would your world change?
What would you be forced to rearrange?
I want to tell you now, I have had my fear
I don’t want to live without you near

Never think what might have been
Life is better now, we got through somehow
Made a promise, kept our vow
Glad we’re saved from cliffs - coulda woulda ifs
Coulda woulda if
Life is full of ifs
