Tommy Shaw

Remo's theme (What if)

There's a message I'm receiving

And it's coming in clear

But it's not the one that I need to hear

So if seeing is believing

You better take another look

Because I'm half-way gone and I'm hardly here

What if, what if you find you made a mistake?

What if, what if it's worth the chance that you take?

I would never want to see you standing in the line of fire

You're the one who has to come to grips with your own desires

Do you hear what I'm saying?

Am I even getting through?

Are you so far gone, I can't talk to you?

I could tell you what you want to hear

But is it really what you need?

Now it's time to stand on your own two feet

What if, what if you find you made a mistake?

What if, what if it's worth the chance that you're taking?

I would never want to see you standing in the line of fire

But you're the one who has to come to grips with your own desires

Get a hold on yourself now

Of your heart and your soul

You've got to make a few decisions

You've got to get some self-control

What if, what if, what if you make a mistake?

What if, what if it's worth the chances you're taking?

I would never want to see you standing in the line of fire

But you're the one who has to come to grips with your own desires

And you're the only one who can decide... Hey, hey

I don't ever want to see you standing in the line of fire

You're the one who has to come to grips with your own desires

I don't ever want to see you standing in the line of fire

But you're the one who really knows what your own desires are.
