And then my heart stopped short As the rest of me rushed to keep up And your face held placidly in the moonlight You’re so very dark with your eyelashes and hair I could steal it all away for myself As my tears slowly crystallize Your skin glows faintly In the begging starlight Calling me, beckoning me For just one touch Oh, how I would have you If it could have been the other way I could hold you in my arms As I cherish your warmth Oh, if only you knew how I love you I wish it could be the other way I wish you knew how I would hold you And how I long for you day after day.

If Only
And then my heart stopped short As the rest of me rushed to keep up And your face held placidly in the moonlight You’re so very dark with your eyelashes and hair I could steal it all away for myself As my tears slowly crystallize Your skin glows faintly In the begging starlight Calling me, beckoning me For just one touch Oh, how I would have you If it could have been the other way I could hold you in my arms As I cherish your warmth Oh, if only you knew how I love you I wish it could be the other way I wish you knew how I would hold you And how I long for you day after day.
