If Only (lyrics)

A million thoughts in my head

Should I let my heart keep listenin'?

Cause up till now I've walked the line

Nothing lost but something missing

I can't decide what's wrong what's right

Which way should I go?

If only I knew what my heart was telling me

Don't know what I'm feeling

Is this just a dream? Uh oh

Yeah, if only I could read the signs in front of me

I could find the way to who I'm meant to be, uh oh

If only

Am I crazy? Maybe we could happen, yeah

Will you still be with me when the magic's all run out?

If only I knew what my heart was telling me

Don't know what I'm feeling

Is this just a dream? Uh oh

If only, yeah

If only, yeah

If only, yeah

If only, if only

If only
