Only Ifs

[Introduction]
Only if
She knew the end was coming
Then it would’ve been less stunning
When the boy tore her heart into bits
But tonight, all I have are
“Only ifs”

[Verse 1]
Only if
My words could console her
Patch her heart where the hole burns
And keeps her awake on nights like this
Only if there were no “only if’s”

[Chorus]
Only if she understood me
And where I’m coming from
And why it came up in a good week
Or why it had to be done
Now I’ve tried my best
To express my feelings day by day
But they just hurt her any way
So for now, I’ll say

[Verse 2]
Only if
She knew I truly loved her
Then she’d never have to wonder
What caused the sudden shift
Only if
Only if There were no “only ifs”

[Chorus]
Only if she understood me
And where I’m coming from
And why it came up in a good week
Or why it had to be done
Now I’ve tried my best
To express my feelings day by day
But they just hurt her any way
So for now, I’ll say

[Outro]
Only if
We knew we’d be together
But it would not last forever
Would we still have tried like this?
Only if there were no “only if’s”
Only if there were no “only if’s”
