Maybe if I was not so closed off about my feelings
Then I would not have lost my only chance.
Maybe if I could tell you how I really felt
Then you might stop talking about her.
Maybe if I was a few pounds lighter
Or a little taller
Maybe if grew out my hair
Or if I smiled a little more
Maybe if I dressed a little nicer
Or if my eyes changed colors in the sun
Maybe if I tried to cut my hands off at my wrists
Or if I see how far down my throat I can fit my hand
Maybe you might love me
Maybe if I could just be her…
