IF ONLY ; words & music by Simon Lewis


Could’ve been a painter
Should’ve been a movie star
I wanted to jump from and airplaine
But I couldn’t take the first step

I dreamed of walking through the Andes
Or following the path of Hillary
I wanted to sail the Greek islands
So much of this world to see

CH
I know I should’ve, but I didn’t
Although I wanted to ask you why
You let me stuff around and waste time
And I always made you cry
If Only If Only

Wished I had’ve been there when the wall came down
Instead I watched it on TV
I wanted to take a stand on something
And play my part in history

CH

If only I had noticed how my life was slowly heading nowhere
If only I had listened to your tears that fell and drowned your love for me
If only I had courage, and if only I had dared to dream
I’ve lost the truth and now I’ve lost you

Should’ve been honest
Could;ve faced my inner fears
I wanted to tell you how I was feeling
I wish I hadn’t wasted all these years


CH
