As the night begins to fade to just another day
How I long to see your face again
Memories of you and I, now I live another life
That no longer feels like mine
Tell me how I can go on now that you're gone
All the days seem so long
And the emptiness that my heart knows
Won't let me go
And if only you could see
What my life has come to be without you're love
I'm missing you so much
And if only I had tried
To find a way so you were still here with me
It wouldn't have to be "if only" tonight
I never thought I'd be the one wondering what went wrong
Wondering what I could have done
But now I'm standing all alone with nothing left to lose
I wish that I could show you
What would I do for that chance to take it all back
To try to make our love last
But there's nothing more for me to give
How can I live?
To take away my pain, to hold you once again
These arms would never let go
If only you could know
If only you could know.
