Jon McLaughlin - If Only I Lyrics






In this old cafe
I come here everyday and watch you
I watch you
sometimes I hear your voice
over all the noise you bleed through
and I hear you

slowly all the faces turn to yours
like no one else exists anymore
I'd talk to you if only I could speak
and I'd dream of you if I could fall asleep

people say love is hell
a shiny prison cell where time stops
but the door's unlocked
now you're apart of me
trust me I've tried to leave
I've tried to walk
but I'm all talk

slowly all the faces turn to yours
like no one else exists anymore
I'd talk to you if only I could speak
and I'd dream of you if I could fall asleep

then I stand up and go talk to you
you start to smile like you want me to
and we stay together for the end of time
but this is only happening in my mind

    In this old cafe
    I come here everyday and watch you
    I watch you
    Sometimes I hear your voice
    Over all the noise you bleed through
    And I hear you, yeah yeah yeah
    Slowly all the faces turn to yours
    Like no one else exists anymore
    And I'd talk to you if only I could speak
    And I'd dream of you if I could fall asleep
    People say love is hell
    It's a shiny prison cell where time stops
    The door's unlocked
    Now you're apart of me
    Trust me I've tried to leave
    I've tried to walk
    But I'm all talk
    'Cause slowly all the faces turn to yours
    Like no one else exists anymore
    And I'd talk to you if only I could speak
    And I'd dream of you if I could fall asleep
    And then I stand up and go talk to you
    You start to smile like you want me to
    And we stay together for the end of time
    But this is only happening in my mind
    And slowly all the faces turn to yours
    Like no one else exists anymore
    And I'd beg for you if only I could speak
    And I'd dream of you if I could fall asleep
    I'd dream of you if I could fall asleep
