If Only

If only I held her tighter when I told her goodbye,

If only I could hold her hand for the very last time,

If only I had the courage to say what I was thinking,

If only I had told her how badly I was sinking.


If only I could hear her voice calling out my name,

If only I could hold her close and feel her warmth inside me again,

If only I could tell her my favourite word again,


If only I had known that time was running out,

If only I had been brave instead of drowning in doubt,

If only I could turn back every second that passed by between then and goodbye


If only I could see her, even just for a while,

If only I could make her look at me and smile,

If only I could have one more moment, nothing more, i promise,

If only I could hold her like I should have before.


If only I could tell her I still think of her at nights when i see a lonely moon in a starless night,

If only I could tell her I still reach for her sometimes,

If only I could be with you, even for a moment or two,

If only you knew how much I still long for you.


If only I could hold you and never let you go,

If only you were here,

If only you were here,

If only, 

if only,

if only
