If Only You Were Here
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If only you were here
Today
Forever
And if only you were mine
I would say
It's forever
I've read through the lines
Oh yeah
I've read through the lines
So is that how the story goes
Is the book now closed?
Said you'd always be around
Oh yeah
And I can't deny, yeah
I can't deny
The way you left me on my own
I thought our love had grown
And we'd never be apart
CHORUS:
If only you were here
Today
Forever
And if only you were mine
I would say
It's forever
Cos I cannot help myself
Oh no no
From falling in love
I used to know why
I used to know why our love was
Endless time gone by
Like angels in the sky
Never thought I'd be so wrong
Oh yeah
And I can't decide
Yeah
And I can't decide whether
Our love was in despair
Instead of playing fair
And I'll miss you since you've gone
CHORUS:
If only you were here
Today
Forever
And if only you were mine
I would say
It's forever
Cos I cannot help myself
Oh no no
From falling in love
If only you were here
yeah
Cos I can't help myself
Oh no no
From falling in love
If only you were here
Today
Forever yeah
If only you were here
I would say
It's forever
Cos I cannot help myself
From falling in love
If only you were here
Today
Forever
And if only you were mine
I would say
It's forever...
