What I knew but couldn't say
If she could just see
The part of me that I hid away
If I could just hold her in my arms again
And just say I love you
But she's gone away, maybe she'd stay
If she only knew
If she could just feel
What I feel here in my heart
She'd know it was real
Pure and true right from the start
But I'm just a man who didn't understand
What she was going through
But she's gone away, maybe she'd stay
If she only knew
And how, how did I let her get away
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause love, love is so easy to feel
But the hardest thing to say
If she could just see (see)
What I see when I close my eyes (close my eyes)
All that I dream (dream)
Surely she would realize
But like a fool I waited much too long
To let her know the truth
She's gone away, maybe she'd stay
If she only knew
Tell me, tell me
How, how did I let her get away (tell me)
'Cause I guess that love
Love is so easy to feel
But the hardest thing to say
Say, say, say, say
If she only knew
What I knew but could not say
If she could just see
The part of me that I hid away
If I could just hold her in my arms again
And just say I love you, I love you
She's gone away, maybe she'd stay
If she only knew, if she only knew
Maybe she'd stay but she ran away
Why she had to go away
'Cause of what I didn't say
Don't know what to do
Oh God how I wish that she knew
If she only knew What I knew but couldn't say If she could just see The part of me that I hid away If I could just hold her in my arms again And just say I love you But she's gone away, maybe she'd stay If she only knew If she could just feel What I feel here in my heart She'd know it was real Pure and true right from the start But I'm just a man who didn't understand What she was going through But she's gone away, maybe she'd stay If she only knew And how, how did I let her get away Oh yeah, yeah, yeah 'Cause love, love is so easy to feel But the hardest thing to say If she could just see (see) What I see when I close my eyes (close my eyes) All that I dream (dream) Surely she would realize But like a fool I waited much too long To let her know the truth She's gone away, maybe she'd stay If she only knew Tell me, tell me How, how did I let her get away (tell me) 'Cause I guess that love Love is so easy to feel But the hardest thing to say Say, say, say, say If she only knew What I knew but could not say If she could just see The part of me that I hid away If I could just hold her in my arms again And just say I love you, I love you She's gone away, maybe she'd stay If she only knew, if she only knew Maybe she'd stay but she ran away Why she had to go away 'Cause of what I didn't say Don't know what to do Oh God how I wish that she knew Explain Request ×
