Then What – Balthazar

If someone told you there is
No elegant way out of this
Then what

And if you’re keeping this heart
From coming completely apart
Then what

And if the rich are begging for more
On the doorsteps of the poor
Then what

Then what is it I’ve got

If someone told you there is
No elegant way out of this
Then what

Girl, and if you; re the last thing
That’s keeping this heart
From coming completely apart
Then what

And if in the warmth and rhythm of your skin
I lost everything I could win
Then what

Then what is it I’ve got

I used to think that I
I used to think I had it all
But that was long before I knew
What a girl like you could do
I used to think that I
I used to think I had it all
But that was long before I knew
What a girl like you could do

And if the eyes that draw you in
Don’t reveal anything
And if the soul that lay thin
Upon the sweat on your skin
Retreated deep into
Your body again
What is it then
What is it then
What is it then
What is it I’ve got

I used to think that I
I used to think I had it all
But that was long before I knew
What a girl like you could do
I used to think that I
I used to think I had it all
But that was long before I knew
What a girl like you could do
