Otherwise

Otherwise, we'd be dancing on a beach

In the starlight with a margarita each

Otherwise, we'd be riding on a bus

Into nowhere, babe, I wish it was

Otherwise, not barely getting through

Another night

Wth the curtains drawn to keep us from

Seeing other people's lives

Otherwise, we'd be rolling in the aisles

And the kids would be rolling their eyes

Otherwise, we're holding on to the lifeboat's sides

And thе only thing keeping us afloat

Is to dream what might have been otherwisе...

Otherwise, I'd be leaving you alone

Not watching you try to push the blood back in a stone

Otherwise, we'd walk along the sea

Not realise that life is going to be otherwise

Babe, I wish it was otherwise

Babe, I wish it was otherwise, yeah
