In the End

And if you could see your hand

That would help you understand

All the things that we endured

To be here right now

On the way I lost some dreams

Shattered other people's too

Those remaining are my friends

And they light a trail to you

And if you could plainly see

What was occurring round the bend

Would it really change what happens in the end

Once I loved a woman so

I asked her to be my wife

Now that love is indifferent

For those years did I waste my life

If we saw what was to be

Would we just avoid the debris

We're here to make our own mistakes

And for that we've got to be free

And if you could plainly see

What was occurring round the bend

Would it really change what happens in the end

Am I too philosophical

Should I look into a crystal ball

Am I being too quizzical

Or should I trust in fate

And if you could see your hand

That would help you understand

All the things that we endured

To be here right now

And if you could plainly see

What was occurring round the bend

Would it really change what happens in the end

Would it really change what happens in the end
