"If Only" lyrics

"If Only"

When will this end
I'll stop pretending
I made my bed
The one you laid in
I'll keep my enemies close
Throw the dogs another bone
Now watch 'em run
Now watch 'em run

When will I learn
Love's religion
Instead it burns
There's something missing
In your garden flowers grow
But you chose the ugly rose
We're out of touch
Were out of touch

And the skies are falling down on me
And I've cried my lonely self to sleep

Could you imagine if only
The clocks stopped working
And time stopped turning
Could you imagine if only
The years repeated
And I could keep it
Could you imagine if only

I've been begging
Hope you're listening
I've done my wrongs
But I'm someone different
Take what I say with a pinch of salt
Yes, I know I've got my faults
But I got 'em from you
I got 'em from you

And the skies are falling down on me
And I've cried my lonely self to sleep

Could you imagine if only
The clocks stopped working
And time stopped turning
Could you imagine if only
The years repeated
And I could keep it

Could you imagine if only
The clocks stopped working
And time stopped turning
Could you imagine if only
The years repeated
And I could keep it
Could you imagine if only

We've stood still
They've watched us healing
You can't break me
I've got my freedom
Found my roots
And I dig them deeper

Whoa, we've stood still
They've watched us healing
You can't break me
I've got my freedom
Found my roots
And I dig them deeper

Could you imagine if only
The clocks stopped working
And time stopped turning
Could you imagine if only
The years repeated
And I could keep it

Could you imagine if only
The clocks stopped working
And time stopped turning
Could you imagine if only
The years repeated
And I could keep it
Could you imagine if only
