"If Only" lyrics

"If Only"

"Hey, umm, got your machine. How's it going? Umm... I was just calling to see if you, ummm... see if you... actually I don't even know why I called you, I'm not even drunk. Just rambling."

If only you were here
If only I could see your eyes
If only I were with you, if only I could kiss you
If only I had just one night to make this right, oh whoa
I would turn this thing around
I'm sad and lonely, drunk and tired of beating myself to a pulp
And I'm not giving up

"I swear I'm not a stalker, I... maybe.... your machine cut me off on the last one cuz I guess I talk to long, which it will do, and I will do as well. Just, know you're great, y'know?"

If only you were here
If only I could see your eyes
If only I were with you, if only I could kiss you
If only I had just one night to make this right, oh whoa
I would turn this thing around
I'm sad and lonely, drunk and tired of beating myself to a pulp
And I'm not giving up

Somehow we fell off track and got off the path we had been in
I bet you thought that I had dried up and blown away
But I'm on a comeback with a fury
And I'm gonna right myself a note
I'm on a mission and I thought that you should know

"You're probably wondering who this is. I just called to apologise. It seems I've been dialing the wrong number."

If only you were here
If only I could see your eyes
If only I were with you, if only I could kiss you
If only I had just one night to make this right, oh whoa
I would turn this thing around
I'm sad and lonely, drunk and tired of beating myself to a pulp
And I'm not giving up

"Hi, could I just get a small cheese and one of those dessert things that you guys do?"
