I noticed you were getting upset
Because your face was redder than a tomato
When you told me about that little girl
About what her brother did to her
Across the street
In the backyard shed
He was a teenager
But she was only six years old
You said:
I was really young and I didn't know what to do
I just walked away
I wonder who she is now...
Where she is now...
If she's anywhere at all
I wonder if I had said something...
That's when you started to get really choked up
There was a long pause
So long that I almost didn't think you were going to finish your thought
But you managed to get it out
You said, "I wonder if it would have made a difference"

That made me think about that day again
The worst day
The day he died
I saw him, and I walked right past
I got that tugging feeling but I ignored it
I just walked away
I wonder who he would have been today...
Where he is now...
If he's anywhere at all...
And everyday I wonder
I wonder if I had said something...
If it would have made a difference
