IF ONLY THAT COULD BE

2004 / 2018

There's a little magic
Floating through the air tonight
I can see the stars
Peering through dark clouds
In the grey night sky

I hold you in my arms
All I feel’s the warming
Of your heart and soul
There's nothing else here
There's nothing else there

I close my eyes and see you close to me

If only that could be...
How happy would I be?

If only that could be
How joyful would I be?
I guess I'd only see
If only that could be...

Saying your name’s like
Tasting the rarest spice
In infinite quantities
To touch your face’s
Like the soft glow of the sun

But right now all I feel’s
The burning of my heart
There's no one else here
There's no one else there
I close my eyes and feel you close to me

Your voice is like a chorus
Heard throughout the world
I can hear the sweet melody
Of the words you say
The things you can't convey

The simple things
That make you
What you are
But it's impossible
It's just not possible

When only that could be
If only that could be...

When it could
Ever be just
You and me.
