If I could just walk away
I’d Live for the very next day
But it just won’t work out that way.
So here’s where I’ll be.
If I could just see you smile
Sit with you for a long long while
But that’s just not our style
So just stay away from me.
If I could just hold your hand
Step up and be that man
I’d give you all I can
But you wouldn’t see.
If I could just touch your soul
It’s the key to life, I’m told
But yours is just too damn cold
So now where were we?
If I could just be who I am
Maybe you would understand.
I’d be your biggest fan.
But now look at me.
If I could just say those words
Would I really be heard?
Or would you be just as disturbed?
I think this has to be.
If I could just open my heart
I hope that’ll be a start
Then maybe my life won’t fall apart
And through the blindness I’ll see.
If I could just make the change
Brake away from all my chains
Life wouldn’t be so strange
And I wouldn’t love you more than me.
If I could just walk away
I’d Live for the very next day
But it just won’t work out that way.
So here’s where I’ll be.
