| Lyrics |
If you could live your life all over
What would you regret
Would your remorse make any difference
Would you just as soon forget
I'd like to think that I'd be sincere
Stronger and kinder, too
But if I'm honest with myself
An apology's the best I could do
(Chorus)
It just goes to show
We are who we are
Nuture and nature decree
If our time was given back to us
Could we change who we were to be
If you could live your life all over
What would you repair
Would you really live in the moment
Would you be that self-aware
I'd like to think that I'd be better
Smarter and nicer, too
But if I'm honest with myself
I'd react to the same old cues
(Chorus)
If you knew then
What you know now
What would you stand to gain
If you think about it
For just a moment
Life and time are the same
They're the same
If you could live your life all over
What would you erase
In its absence would you lose experience

| Description |
Short Song Description:
If you could live your life again, what would you do differently? |
Long Song Description:
If you could live your life again, would you change anything? Or, are we all predestined by our biology and environment to do exactly the same thing? Could we change? |
Story Behind the Song:
The "nature vs. nurture" argument has always been interesting to me. If you had a chance to live your life all over would you - could you - change anything, or are we all predestined to be who we are? |
