Paradise Love














->
If words could make you be with me right now
Just would I whisper your name
And to your heart the wind would carry my call.

If pain could be described so much that you felt it too
The wound on my heart I would have shared with you
And you would know how painful it is to live missing you.

If you could imagine how happy we could have been
Come back, you would
And we would start all over as we were young.

Now I have grown and seen
Life is bumping on painful rocks; stepping on pricking thorns
Besides everything I have found
You were the one happiness my life bumped into.

So if I could turn back the hands of time
I would go back to the past and hold you close
I wouldn’t let you go

If I was our blameless God
Without anything in the past that I might have lied
I know you would easily believe me.

If both of us were not people
We would have been friends without need to explain…

O! If, If…if and if!
I say if out of loss and grief!
For time we could have found and shared our life!
Had the world been able to keep us safe.
