"If Only" lyrics
"If Only"
I still remember my name
But forgotten my royal mistakes
If only
I could go back in time
When you were a friend of mine
If only
We were just a little less tired and true
You were being you, and I was being too human
But who was I fooling
Ohh if only
If only I could trust you
Rest your head and turn the light on
If only I could wish your kiss was not a falling star
If only I was yours, the shoulder that you'd wanna to cry on
If only you could pull me safely through these prison bars
Ehh if only
(If only, if only)
(If only, if only)
I took your crown of thorns
Laid down to be reborn
If only
I wasn't flesh and bone
I could rise up from being stoned
If only
You could see through someone like me
Tryna be free, maybe just a little less lonely
Ohh I was so lonely
If only
If only I could trust you
Rest your head and turn the light on (If only, if only)
If only I could wish your kiss was not a falling star
(If only, if only)
If only I was yours, the shoulder that you'd wanna to cry on
(If only, if only)
If only you could pull me safely through these prison bars
(If only)
Ehh if only
It's out with the old, I'll be new
And don't worry about the drink and drugs, I'm through
If only I believed that was true
We'd be living all the dreams in a house with a view
If only, if only you knew how the voices of demons could drown out the truth
Now my one place of freedom is sleeping with you
If only, if only you knew
If only I could trust you
Rest your head and turn the light on
If only I could wish your kiss was not a falling star
If only, If only I was your shoulder to cry on
If only you could pull me safely through these prison bars
Ehh if only
If only, if only
If only

Alessia Cara - "Here" (I guess right now you've got the last laugh)
I'm sorry if I seem uninterested
Or I'm not listenin' or I'm indifferent
Truly, I ain't got no business here
But since my friends are here
I just came...
Ruth B. - "Superficial Love" You're really cute, I must admit
But I need something deeper than this
I wanna know when I'm looking at you
That you don't only see the things you want to
'Cause I'm not perfect, I'm flawed
And if...
Mr. Probz - "Till You're Loved" Can ya tell me
How close is too close
How far is too far
I gotta know
You see beauty
In the things I don't see
Body to body
Soul to soul
But I've been nursing a broken heart
Taking the steps back to...
Ruel - "Dazed & Confused" You came in swinging like Apollo
I'll be feeling it tomorrow
No, I ain't seeing straight, hyperventilate
Knees begin to wobble
You cut my brakes and hit the throttle
I couldn't stop it if I wanted...
Calum Scott - "Need To Know" It's been a minute since we connected
I got the message, you don't feel like that
So why can't you leave it the way we left it
Instead of reminiscin' 'bout the past
I showed you things I know you...
