Red Bitty by Vanessa Carlton

if in the middle of a vital conversation
I chose not to listen
would that be okay?

and if in the middle of a heated confrontation
I chose not to
would that be okay?

and if I love you without reference to occasion
would you run away?
or would that be okay?

and if in the middle of this final declaration
I walked away
what would you say?
would that be okay?
