    “What If” Lyrics

    I’ve heard ‘em say before to live just like you’re dying yeah
    Wish I could say that’s how I am but I’d be lying yeah
    And lying in my bed at night one too many times just thinking
    What if, what if

    My biggest fear is waking up to find what matters
    Is miles away from what I spent my life chasing after
    Is my story gonna have the same two words in every chapter?
    What if, what if

    But last I checked this heart inside my chest
    Is still beating
    Well I guess it’s not too late

    What if today’s the only day I got?
    I don’t wanna waste it if it’s my last shot
    No regret,s in the end
    I wanna know I got no what ifs
    I’m running till the road runs out
    I’m lighting it up right here right now
    No regrets, in the end
    I wanna know I got no what ifs, yeah

    See I refuse to be a should a would a could a been
    I can’t go back in time I don’t have a DeLorean
    What I’m trying to say is I don’t wanna hear these words again
    What if, what if

    But last I checked this heart inside my chest
    Is still beating
    Well I guess it’s not too late, No No

    What if today’s the only day I got?
    I don’t wanna waste it if it’s my last shot
    No regrets, in the end
    I wanna know I got no what ifs
    I’m running till the road runs out
    I’m lighting it up right here right now
    No regrets, in the end
    I wanna know I got no what ifs

    I’m gonna dream a little bigger
    Burn a little brighter
    Stand a little taller, closer to Your fire

    Dig a little deeper
    Reach a little further
    Love a little harder

    I’m gonna dream a little bigger
    Burn a little brighter
    Stand a little taller, closer to Your fire

    Dig a little deeper
    Reach a little further
    Love a little harder

    What if today’s the only day I got?
    I don’t wanna waste it if it’s my last shot
    No regrets, in the end
    I wanna know I got no what ifs
    I’m running till the road runs out
    I’m lighting it up right here right now
    No regrets, in the end
    I wanna know I got no what ifs, yeah
