lyrics

if mountains dissolved transformed into clouds,
if rain hit the ground falling back up,
if lightning were ice in air made of sparks,
if bright faded out and dawn became dusk
would I be lost or would I be found?
would I be afraid to be here and now?

if thunder whispered "We never touched"
would I be unchained or would I give up?
I know the unknown is more than I'll know
but what if the absence could clearly be heard?
would I be blind or would I be proud?
would I be brave to be here and now?

if only time would turn around
running back from where we are
if only I could push away
these voices arguing to stay
if only they would settle down
if only we'd figure it out
if only you, If only me
if only, if only
