If Only

If Only

A ghost of fantasy past
A wish fulfilled but won't last
If only now
Oh, if only I could touch the sunrise

A phantom memory of our first kiss
A thought we share of lasting bliss
If only, yes
Oh, if only I could touch your skin

An apparition of all I've ever dreamt
A wealthy prince in garb unkempt
If only then
Oh, if only our paths had crossed in the morn

I would've known true love
Lasting joy and beauty
If only, yes
If only I'd known the rapture of your smile

Oh, if only you'd grant me this:
A tenderly held reverie
Lost in your kiss.
