If time allowed me to live two lives instead of one,
I would have no obligation except to love you.
If only time allowed.
If I had known I was steering you into his arms,
What different words I would have spoken.
If only I had known.
If you had known my deepest thoughts and dreams,
(Perhaps you would have waited for me.)
What a life of love we might have shared.
If only you had known.
If I knew then what I know now,
(I would have waited for you.)
What sorrows I could have undone.
If only I knew then what I know now.
And yet, if ever a man loved a woman,
Even if only from afar, I loved you!
And
If time allows for second chances,
I will love you still in this life or the next.
If only time allows.
Simply beautiful. Gave a cloud to my eyes. But oh, how true your words do ring. From one lost romantic to another Patricia
