If only I could
(Joe Pereira)

If only I could mend
The broken pieces of the past
Would I wonder if
Any good things ever last
If only I could heal
The wounds that never seem to fade
Would I wonder if
the right price was paid

The answers are hidden in the dark
Maybe they will leave their mark

If only I could turn
Losses into victories
Would I still lay awake at night and wonder
If I got it right

If only I could find
The words left silent in the rain
Would I wonder if
They’d wash away the pain
If only I could hold
The moments slipping through my hands
Would I wonder if
Time really understands

The answers are hidden in the dark
Maybe they will leave their mark

If only I could turn
Losses into victories
Would I still lay awake at night and wonder
If I got it right
If I could turn back time
Back to where it all began
Would I still lay awake at night and wonder
If I got it right
