If there was no prophecy, and I had a family,
And I was safe because the Dark Lord did die,
Life could be easy,
But I wouldn’t be happy
For with a life carefree,
I wouldn’t be I.
If you were safe and Albus still stood tall,
And Death Eaters hadn't killed Sirius, too,
There'd be no danger of me to fall,
And we'd be together, all
Of us but without our Fates who to us call,
You wouldn’t be you.
If we could touch the stars and smile all night,
And you were here with me, and I had no worry,
Things would seem bright
But I'd be restless, would embrace danger while in the light,
For if our lives were so simple, so alright
We wouldn’t be we.
