If Only
So dear my dreams and softer still you, became to me
you spoke so fair and lingered there so perfectly
you said " I shave ", you sighed " I seek ", even my own heart could see
you were perfectly that dream of mine, you came so dear to me
You could have saved my life , you could have set me free
if only you had loved enough , to give your love to me
Sweetly now my breathe has slowed but stiller it will be
and warm but growing cooler still my pale pink lips to me
and soft, my eyes see blurred just now and so less clearly
these you could have saved had you but given your love to me
You could have saved my life, you could have set me free
if only you had loved enough, to give your love to me
Softly now I swallow, another, another there you see
so easily they disappear, those pills inside of me
and with each downed imaginings I sigh
wishing only you could see
Those dreams I spoke, so sweetly then for me
I whispered dearly this and that
and caressed so tenderly
the love I thought you had in your heart for me
You could have saved my life, you could have set me free
if only you had loved enough, to give your love to me
So dear I dreamed my finger there on your lips would be
and moving oh so slowly now. would you open that mouth to me
it paused there and I smiled to imagine how it'd be
your precious mouth so dearly offering itself openly to me
But dreams die hardest and ever more shall be
that these last things I remember still, I hold so cherishedly
and sleep comes easy now, drugs make it be
I wish just now I had heard again your soft dear voice to me
You could have saved my life, you could have set me free
if only you had loved enough, to give your love to me
