[Verse 1]
What if I hadn't gone to town
To pick up a thing or two?
What if I hadn't turned around
And walked straight into you?
What if you hadn't said hello
Or smiled at me that way?
Maybe I wouldn't be hurting so
The way I am today
[Chorus]
But I'm thankful for the day we met
That morning in September
'Cause I'd rather have something to forget
Than nothing to remember
[Verse 2]
What if you hadn't called me up?
What if I wasn't home?
What if we hadn't shared that cup
Of coffee all alone?
What if I hadn't felt your kiss?
What if my heart didn't fall?
Think of all the things I'd miss
If we'd never loved at all
[Chorus]
But I'm thankful for the day we met
That morning in September
'Cause I'd rather have something to forget
Than nothing to remember
'Cause I'd rather have something to forget
Than nothing to remember
Nothing to remember
Nothing to remember
