if my words were written down 
and thrown into the wind 
i wonder if you’d hear them 
and learn of how i sinned 

if my words were written down
 and tossed into the waves 
i wonder if you’d find them 
in the sea, their shallow grave

 if my words were written down
 and left there on the floor 
i wonder if you’d pick them up
 and try to learn some more 

if my words were written down 
and shouted from a hill 
i wonder if you’d listen
 a hope i wish you would fulfill

 if i spoke my words to you 
would you take notice or just leave
 i wonder if you’d even care
 or just abandon me

my words
if my words were written down 
and thrown into the wind 
i wonder if you’d hear them 
and learn of how i sinned 

if my words were written down
 and tossed into the waves 
i wonder if you’d find them 
in the sea, their shallow grave

 if my words were written down
 and left there on the floor 
i wonder if you’d pick them up
 and try to learn some more 

if my words were written down 
and shouted from a hill 
i wonder if you’d listen
 a hope i wish you would fulfill

 if i spoke my words to you 
would you take notice or just leave
 i wonder if you’d even care
 or just abandon me
