lyrics

If Only

used to see the sunrise
as I was going to bed
breakfast at lunchtime
two aspirin for my head

you saw me as I used to be
on a ride at the fair
easy-going that was me
on a merry-go-round bound nowhere

if only I’d loved you
half as much as you loved me
if only I’d loved
more than I’ve loved before

as we were walking on the sand
I was dancing on the moon
but I could not understand
why you left so soon

you saw through me for what I am
flying fancy-free
thought I didn’t give a damn
but now you’re gone it’s clear to me

if only I’d loved you
half as much as you loved me
if only I’d loved
more than I’ve loved before

if only I’d loved you
half as much as you loved me
if only I’d loved
more than I’ve loved before

if only I’d loved you
half as much as you loved me
if only I’d loved
more than I’ve loved before

if only I’d loved you
half as much as you loved me
if only I’d loved
more than I’ve loved before

if only I’d loved you
half as much as you loved me
if only I’d loved
more than I’ve loved before

if only I’d loved you if only I’d loved you
