  • What if you're right?
    And he was just another nice guy
    What if you're right?
    What if it's true?
    They say the cross will
    Only make a fool of you
    And what if it's true?

    What if he takes his palace in history
    With all the prophets and the kings
    Who taught us love and came in peace
    But then the story ends
    What then?

    But what if you're wrong?
    What if there's more?
    What if there's hope you
    Never dreamed of hoping for?
    What if you jump?
    And just close your eyes?
    What if the arms that catch you,
    Catch you by surprise?
    What if He's more than enough?
    What if it's love?

    What if you dig,
    What if you dig
    Way down deeper
    Than your simple-minded friends
    What if you dig?
    What if you find
    A thousand more unanswered questions
    Inside That's all you find

    What if you pick apart the logic
    And begin to poke the holes
    What if the crown of thorns is no more
    Then folklore that must be told and retold

    But what if you're wrong?
    What if there's more?
    What if there's hope you
    Never dreamed of hoping for?
    What if you jump?
    And just close your eyes?
    What if the arms that catch you,
    Catch you by surprise?
    What if He's more than enough?
    What if it's love?

    You've been running as fast as you can
    You've been looking for a place you can land so long
    But what if you're wrong?

    What if you jump?
    And just close your eyes?
    What if the arms that catch you,
    Catch you by surprise?
    What if He's more than enough?
    What if it's love? Writer/s: Sofie Livebrant
