If Only…


If only you knew how I spoke of you to other people,
You would know in what high regards I hold you.

If only you knew how I watched you from aside talking with others,
You would know how amazed I am at what you know.

If only you knew how I liked to hear your voice,
You would know how I loved to hear you talk.

If only you knew the joy I got when I saw you with my son,
You would know that I wanted that moment to last forever.

If only you knew how you make the days seem better and brighter,
You would know that I wanted to be with you forever.

If only you knew how I missed you when I was away,
You would know that I was always longing to return.

If only you knew how much I loved to be with you,
You would know that it was enough just to hold you in my arms.

If only you knew how I wanted to give you the world,
You would know that I always wanted the best for you.

If only you could see yourself through my eyes,
You would see and know what a beautiful and wonderful person your are.

If only I could have told you all of these things,

If only I would have shown you…
