EMMA CAREW
If you only knew how much I love you
Would you still behave the way you do?
Forever tempting fate,
While I just sit and wait.
And worry about what fate might do to you.
If you only knew how much I suffer
Would you maybe change your point of view?
Or will you still go on
Till all our dreams are gone
And hope that I will still be there for you
Must I go on like this forever?
Not knowing when or whether you’ll return
Do I just sit and yearn
Or try to live and learn
And learn to live with what you put me through?
If you only knew…
I’m not as fragile as I appear to be.
I won’t so easily break in two
If you only knew how much I wonder
Whether you’re aware that you need me too.
If you weren’t so blind
Together we could find
The peace of mind that makes our dreams come true
If you only knew…
If you only knew…
If you only knew…
