If Only

(album: Timing - 2012)

4 am. I'm looking at myself
The reflection of the clock on top of my shelf
Here it comes I'm still awake
and I can feel the sun
Shining through the trees
To shine on me, but don't shine on me

So maybe if I close my eyes
maybe then I can see you smiling
I'll be dreaming of good times
Oh, I'm sure it'll stop the crying
If only you'd come back to me
Maybe then I can stop this lying
To myself

Oh...
All these sounds
Sometimes silence can be so damn loud
Baby girl if I could have my choice
I'd only hear your voice
Feel you breathe
and feel the earth move when you're touching me
So many things that I wish
that I can do with you

So maybe if I close my eyes
maybe then I can see you smiling
I'll be dreaming of good times
Oh, I'm sure it'll stop the crying
If only you'd come back to me
Maybe then I can stop this lying
To myself

All the megapixels in this world
Couldn't capture what you mean to me, girl
If a picture's worth a thousand words
No million pictures could speak for her
La la la la la la la la la la la...
Always lying to myself, heyyy... yeahhh

So maybe if I close my eyes
maybe then I can see you smiling
I'll be dreaming of good times
Oh, I'm sure it'll stop the crying
If only you'd come back to me
Oh, maybe maybe then I can stop this lying
To myself
Heyyy, yeahh
