Intro
Verse 1
How Am I To Know If You Won't Face It?
You Tie It With A Bow And Call It Patience,
It Kinda Feels Like Cowardice To Me,
You Once Said That A Coward's,
The Worst Thing A Man Can Be.
Verse 2
You'd Love Me Under All The Right Conditions,
A Pretty Way To Package Indecision,
Don't Keep Me On Your Leash Just To Cut Me Loose,
Don't Pretend That It's Out Of Your Hands,
When You Know The Truth?
Chorus
Saying, "If . . . Only",
"If . . . Only".
Verse 3
I Had You For A Spring And Half A Summer,
I Have You Still In Some Ways, Not In Others,
Suspended In The Air Like An Acrobat,
(Don't Keep Me On Your Hook Just To Toss Me Back),
Purple Sky When It All Came Down,
Yellow Light And A Siren Sound,
You Say It Soft, Like A Secrеt,
Like You Know That It's A Cop-Out.
Refrain
"If . . . Only",
"If . . . Only",
"If . . . Only".
Bridge
If Only You Could Show Me That You Want This,
If Only You Could Bear To Lеt Me Go,
You Tell Me I'm The One Who Keeps You Honest,
If Only I Could Keep You Close,
You'd Rather Give A Poem Than A Promise,
I'd Rather Have A Promise Than A Poem.
Outro
"If . . . Only",
"If . . . Only",
"If . . . Only".
