If He Walked Into My Life lyrics

Did he need a stronger hand?

Did he need a lighter touch?

Was I soft or was I tough?

Did I give enough, did I give too much?

At the moment when he needed me

Did I ever turn away?

Would I be there when he called

If he walked into my life today?

Were his days a little dull?

Were his nights a little wild?

Did I overstate my plan?

Did I stress the man and forget the child?

And there must have been a million things

That my heart forgot to say

Would I think of one or two

If he walked into my life today?

Should I blame the times I pampered him

Or blame the times I bossed him?

What a shame,

I never really found the boy before I lost him

Were the years a little fast?

Was his world a little free?

Was there too much of a crowd?

All too lush and loud and not enough for me

Though I'll ask myself my whole life long

What went wrong along the way

Would I make the same mistakes

if he walked into my life today?
