ian anderson - what-ifs, maybes and might-have-beens lyrics

we all must wonder, now and then,
if things had turned out – well – just plain different.
chance path taken, page unturned or brief encounter, blossomed, splintered.
might i have been the man of courage, brave upon life’s battlefield,
captain commerce, high-flown banker, hedonistic, down-at-heel?
a puritan of moral fibre, voice raised in praise magnificent?
or rested in -ssured repose, knowing my lot in quiet content.

what-ifs, maybes and might-have-beens fly, soft petals on a breeze.
what-ifs, maybes and might-have-beens.
why-nots, perhaps and wait-and-sees.

suppose bold woman, quite unsuited, brave in adventure, sojourns wicked.
velvet touch and lips soft-centred, tossing hair, teeth bared in laughing.
imagine idyll summers never-ending, winter nights beside fire roaring.
touched by madness, filled with fondness, kissed by love, love without name.

what-ifs, maybes and might-have-beens fly, soft petals on a breeze.
what-ifs, maybes and might-have-beens.
why-nots, perhaps and wait-and-sees.

so, you ride yourselves over the fields.
and you make all your animal deals.
and your wise men don’t know how it feels
to be thick as a brick… two
