If Only - Carlton Yorke

Описание: If only I had known the cost
Of letting moments pass
I might have held them closer
Instead of walking fast

If only I had read the signs
Behind your quiet eyes
Seen the storm behind the calm
The truth beneath disguise

Every word I left unsaid
Still echoes in my head
Like footsteps in the rain

If only time would turn around
And let me stand once more
In the light of what we were
Before the closing door
Through the fire, through the fall
Through the nights I couldn’t see
If only I had understood
What you meant to me

I chased the horizon’s promise
Believed there’d always be
Another dawn to make it right
Another chance for me

But mercy doesn’t bend the clock
And silence doesn’t knock
Before it slips away

If only I had slowed my pace
And listened to your heart
I might have held forever
Before it fell apart
Through the pride, through the fear
Through the man I tried to be
If only I had understood
What you meant to me

Still I won’t curse the road I’ve walked
Or the man I was back then
For every tear has shaped my soul
And brought me here again

If only love could speak aloud
Across the years between
I’d say I see it clearly now
What all those moments mean
Through the dark and through the dawn
Through the truth that set me free
If only I had known back then
You were home to me

If only…
