Questions
What if one day you couldn't find me?
You looked into my room and I wasn't there.
You tell yourself I'll be back
But the words you speak, you cannot hear.
What if you saw me living a life
Without you and I was smiling?
Would you be heart broken, dear mother?
Or would you turn your back?

By asking you these questions
I'm telling you my fears
In that situation, I'd want you
To take me by the hand

What if one day I left you?
You watched me walk out the door and leave you.
You tell yourself I'm just angry
But the words you speak, you don't believe.
Would you run after me, dear father?
Or would you say "oh, she'll be back"?

By asking you these questions
I'm telling you my fears
In that situation, I'd want you
To take me by the hand

What if one day you needed me?
You called my phone and I ignored it.
You tell yourself my phone must be dead
But the words you speak, they're dead
You know where I am and you find me
But I barely even notice your presence
Would you be sad, dear sister?
Or would you be surprisingly glad?

By asking you these questions
I'm telling you my fears
In that situation, I'd want you
To take me by the hand

'Cause I won't leave you
I won't hurt you
I won't cause you pain
And I will love you
I will save you
I will be with you

And I will always need you.
