If Only lyrics

Every single time I see you I start to feel this way

It makes me wonder if I'm ever gonna feel this way again

There's a picture that's hanging in the back of my head

I see it over and over

I want to hold you and love you in my arms and then

I want to lead you 'cause I need to be with you 'til the end

Then I hear myself reply you've got to hold it in

This time tonight

If only I had the guts to feel this way

If only you'd look at me and want to stay

If only I'd take you in my arms and say

I won't go 'cause I need you

I sit here waiting wondering hoping that I'll make this right

'Cause all I think about is your hands

Your face and all these lonely nights

There's a feeling screaming in the back of my head

Saying over and over

I want to hold you love you in my arms and then

I want to need you 'cause I need to be with you 'til the end

Then I hear myself reply she'll never let you in

This time, tonight

If only I had the guts to feel this way

And if only you'd look at me and want to stay

And if only I'd take you in my arms and say

I won't go 'cause I need you

Please don't go 'cause I need you now

I want to hear you say

It'll always be this way

We'll be hand in hand for every night and every day

I want to scream and shout

'Cause I'm losing any doubt

And all I care about is you

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

If only I had the guts to feel this way

And if only you'd look at me and want to stay

And if only I'd take you in my arms and say

I won't go 'cause I need you

Please don't go 'cause I need you now

Yeah

'Cause I need you

(If only...)

'Cause I need you now

(If only...)

'Cause I need you

I need you

(If only...)

'Cause I need you
