If I could reach you one more time,
I'd tell you all is forgiven.

If I could see you one more time,
Your beauty would not be lost on me.

If I could hold you one more time,
I'd never let go.

If I could love you one more time,
Our flame would never go out.

If I could trust you one more time,
My frozen heart would melt.

If only I could...

Will I be a treasure chest?
Or will I be a boat?
Will I be a creaky door,
where someone hangs their coat?

I could be a camp-fire,
shining bright for all,
but I still have some growing to do...
One day I'll be tall.

If I was granted just one wish,
for how we'd spend our lives,
I'd have to give it so much thought,
till perfect plans arrive.

We could be lovers on the wing,
soaring through the air,
but I think flight is overrated,
there's lots more we could share.

We could be swingers in the trees,
laughing with the chimps.
I'm sure we'd be entertained,
but there's so much more to glimpse.

We could see the great savannah,
stampeding cross the plains,
being one with mother nature,
but I'm sure we'd be drained.

I think we're more like little otters,
splashing playfully.
Holding hands we rock to sleep,
we'll never drift at sea.

Sitting by the window,
Staring at the sky,
Life's not much fun for house cats,
Forever stuck inside.

Little birds up in the trees,
Look like a tasty treat,
I see friends and enemies,
Ill never get to meet.

Giants seem to come and go,
Through things that they call doors,
They make them work with things called hands,
I'm stuck here with these paws.

One day I'll break out of here,
I'll make a dash and hide,
Life's not much fun for house cats,
Forever stuck inside.
