Had it been anyone else
It wouldn't have hurt
The pain wouldn't rise
Every time that I think
Of how it used to be.
Had it been anyone else
Who had done what you did
I could have moved on,
Could've forged ahead
And not live with the deed.
Had it been anyone else
Someone that I didn't know
Didn't trust, didn't love
I'd like to believe it wasn't
You who betrayed me like this.
Had it been anyone else
Anyone at all
Anyone who wasn't you
I could have forgiven myself
And you, Grandfather.
