If Only

Paroles

If only, I’d not left that day

If only, I’d not been led astray

If only, I didn’t have this notion,

There was somehow, somewhere

A place for me, across this wide-ocean

If only, I’d realise these foolish dreams,

Were not at all, as they seemed

If only, I could trust in myself

To see clearly through,

What is what, and who is who

Oh, what a fool I’ve been

I’ve gone and ruined everything

If only there was a way

If only I could wish this away

But it’s now too late for me

I have to accept this, my new found destiny…

Oh, what a fool I’ve been

If only, I’d not left that day

If only, I’d not been led astray

If only, I didn’t have this notion,

There was somehow, somewhere

A place for me, across this wide-ocean

If only, I’d realise these foolish dreams,

Were not at all, as they seemed

If only, I could trust in myself

To see clearly through,

What is what, and who is who

Oh, what a fool I’ve been

I’ve gone and ruined everything

If only there was a way

If only I could wish this away

But it’s now too late for me

I have to accept this, my new found destiny…

Oh, what a fool I’ve been

Oh, what a fool I’ve been…
