If we could just get the timing right.
If we could just be lucky for once.
If our paths would just intersect exactly where they're supposed to...

If only we said the same prayer each night, for the rest of our lives.
If only we vowed never to put one another out of our minds.

If the universe could promise us one thing...
If eternal life meant, our eternal beings,
linking up somehow and merging.

(IF)


Things would always be what they never will.
We would always have what we tried to capture.
Stars would always align just where we want them.
Our spirits would share a kiss sealed
by the weight of each footstep it took for us to finally meet.
Every breath we've taken from birth until now,
it would be worth it seven times over.

If my words met your thoughts,
your thoughts met my mind,
my mind met your body,
your body met my heart
and your heart met my hand...
This would be me touching you there,
if only we could just get the timing right.
