Lyrics

Outside the wind is blowing
Through the thoughts of my mind
Thinking a fear is growing
But inside my heart is alone
I have a heart and this heart’s for a woman
I have a promise, of this I swear
I have a love that want be forgotten
I have a life that’s going nowhere
I just want to be with you
Hold you like I used to do, time after time
Give my heart and soul to you
Hope that you can feel it too
If only I could be with you
I hear the wind whisper your name
Taking my thoughts again far away
I’m dreaming of living a life full of love
And you out there, calling my name, saying
I just want to be with you, etc..

(Repeat first chorus)

I walk the streets so all alone,
holding hands with a distant past
How long is it going to last, could it be forever
She can’t hear me, she can’t heal me
If only I could be with you
I just want to be with you
Hold you like I used to do, time after time
Give my heart and my soul to you
Hoping you can feel it too
if only I could be with you

If Only I Could Be With You
