If only I could
Find the answers anywhere
For what I feel
If only I could
Make myself to trust once more
I'd fight the world
If only i could
Put my faith in others' hands
I'd never seek prayers.
If only I could
If only I could
I would do anything to love again
I would not be feared
Of any disaster
In my way, if only I could
I would surrender
I would leave the petty social constructs
If only I could.
Leave the world behind
And dissolve my name in you
If only I could.
I'd do anything to love again
If only I could
If only I could
I'd say your name
As a prayer to be united
If only I could
I'd keep smiling through the death
To keep you
If only I could.
I would
Only if I could love again
And do anything.
If only I could
I would wait, shivering in cold
Just to hold your hands
If I could
I would justify your wrong
By doing wrong
When people need peace
They look at the sky and stars above
I'd look at you
Only if I could
I would do anything
Just to love you
Rivers would fight you
I'd turn the oceans around
Only for you
Only for you
I will destroy the life
That doesn't include you
If only
And only if I could
I would sink and burn for your love
Just to hear your voice
Just to make you real
I'll do anything
If only I could
The world would be in your feet
And the sky will rain diamonds.
The universe will revolve around you
Sand will write you name on it
If only I could
Only and only if
I could I would do anything
To love you
And have you
Love me back.
