What-ifs, Maybes and Might-have-beens - Ian Anderson

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 assured 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
