Kayak If History Was Mine Alone Lyrics

Catherine, The Monk, Nostradamus
(C)
If history was mine alone to write
I'd have it all my way
An easy game to play
Where only rules that I made up applied
Where people and events
Were under my command
If history was mine alone

(M)
If history was mine alone to change
Knowing what went wrong
And what could have been done
To save the order I would rearrange
The sequence of my dreams
And act behind the scenes If history was mine alone

(N)
If history was mine alone to claim
An image of the past
I wouldn't want to last
And show the world within a certain frame
By going back in time
If history was mine
(C)
If history was mine
(M)
If history was mine
If history was mine

(N)
The future would mean burden, grief and shame
Determined just by me
And what to choose to see
If history was mine alone...
