If You Only Knew

[1st v:]

What
Of who
Knows where
Anything
Can be

Left only for the
Heart....mind
And soul
To see

Sometimes
We may ask why

So much
Wanting
To find
The treasure
Hidden behind
The lock

Reaching so deep inside
To find
The key

Set your sails
Along the ocean

Floating away
To never know

Just where
One might have
Failed

[1st ch:]

If you only knew
What you
Believe
You do

Keep thinking
That you may have lost
A love
That claimed to forever
Hold you

Now....
Wondering
At what cost

Sitting  on the bed
Stuffed doll....smiling....cute
And lovable
With eyes shining true

Looking like
The softer side
Of you

Give in
Run on out

Holding on....
Letting go

Reading everything
Hold on to the words
To the one
Who already knows
Everything in your heart
I already....long ago
Quietly heard

[2nd v:]

Do you stay
Or
Do you go

Only you control
What you decide
To know

Lights are on
Somebody....
Is home

Standing in the crowded room
Asking
Why do you
Feel so alone

Standing by the sea
The oceans air whispers
The secrets
You already know

You know where your heart
Wants
To be

One more time
The music plays on
Trying to piece together
What falls
Off line

Reaching for the sky
Warmed by the sun
Stars shining true
Better choose
Left or right
Yes or no

Do you stay
Or
Do you go

Say good-bye
To what you know

Only to realize what you knew
Held so closely
Is true
And once again
Is gone

Now
Nothing more
You could ever say or do
If you only knew

[2nd ch:]

If you only knew
What you
Believe
You do

Keep thinking
That you may have lost
A love
That claimed to forever
Hold you

Now
Wondering
At what cost

Sitting on the bed
Stuffed doll smiling....cute
And lovable
With eyes shining true
Looking like
The softer side
Of you

Give in
Run on out

Holding on....
Letting go

Reading everything
Hold on to the words
To the one
Who already knows
Everything in your heart
I already....long ago
Quietly heard
