If Only We'd Known

If only you'd lingered a little while

If only we'd seen one more little smile,

If only you'd shared just one hug more

If only we could have life as before...

If only we'd known.

If only our days were still filled with you,

If only our nights weren't so lonely and blue,

If only we'd see you drive by in your car,

If only we could have things as they were...

If only we'd known.

There's nothing we'd change

In the love that we shared,

Except to keep you here,

We wish you'd been spared...

If only we'd known!

With love, Gram
