If I Only Could
If I could reach out and touch you and ease your aching soul, if I could bend forth and kiss you and make your heart seem whole, if I could look into your eyes and make your sad self see, if I could only make you believe that you mean the world to me.
If I could make you laugh happily and cause your frown to smile, if I could hold you close a bit and hug you for a while, if I could take away your pain and make you quiver in delight, if I could only make your world seem a bit more bright.
If I could keep you safe from harm and make your sorrows sway, if I could make clouds disappear and make dark nights turn to day, if I could always be there for you when you seem to need a friend, if I could stand beside you and be strong until the end.
If I could make you understand and if I could only make you see, if I could turn my tears to rain and set my feelings free, if you could only imagine this, imagine me looking into your eyes, imagine that I am loving you, all around you, blue born skies.
If I could only, if only I could, I'd give the gift of love for good.
