If I could reach out and touch you
and ease your aching soul,
if I could bend forth and kiss you
and make your heart seem whole,
if I could look into your eyes
and make your sad self see,
if I could only make you believe
that you mean the world to me.
If I could make you laugh happily
and cause your frown to smile,
if I could hold you close a bit
and hug you for a while,
if I could take away your pain
and make you quiver in delight,
if I could only make your world
seem a bit more bright.
If I could keep you safe from harm
and make your sorrows sway,
if I could make clouds disappear
and make dark nights turn to day,
if I could always be there for you
when you seem to need a friend,
if I could stand beside you
and be strong until the end.
If I could make you understand
and if I could only make you see,
if I could turn my tears to rain
and set my feelings free,
if you could only imagine this,
imagine me looking into your eyes,
imagine that I am loving you,
all around you, blue born skies.
If I could only, if only I could,
I'd give the gift of love for good.
