Yes - If You Only Knew Lyrics






I can lift you with my heart
Give you meaning every day
Cannot live without your truth

And be the true me
To be the true you

Pick the flowers from your floor
Put them in your arms for you my love
Realise my life and more

Say you will 'n' then

Take me home
Make me clear
It feels so much better
Take me home
To this heart of hearts

If only you knew
You caught me when I was falling
Yes you caught me when I was falling fast

And only you knew
You answered me when I was calling you
You saw me when I was dreaming you
Into my life

Everyone who looks at you
Sees the loving in your every move
You're the healing of the soul

To be the true you
To be the true me

I will be your strength all time
Ever wishing you this love and more
Forever be your guiding song

Say you will and then

Take me home
Make me clear
To feel so much better
In this life
In your heart of hearts

If only you knew
How you caught me when I was falling
Yes you caught me when I was falling fast

And only you knew
You answered me when I was calling you
You saw me when I was dreaming you
Into my life

When I feel the hurt in so many peoples' lives
I take a deep breath and think of your smile your eyes

When I hear the sadness of this earthtime
Then I take a deep breath and know that you understand
That you understand

And only you knew
How you caught me when I was falling fast
Caught me when I was falling fast

If only you knew
How you answered me when I was calling you
You saw me when I was dreaming you

If only you knew
Yes you caught me when I was falling fast
You caught me when I was falling
Into your life

    I read somewhere that jon Anderson wrote that song for his wife, one off my friends was at a live show of jon Anderson as a solo artist, he came to the show without a band, only him and an acoustic guitar...and in the first row was his wife...he (jon Anderson) introduced her to the crowd, yes, I believe he wrote the song for his wife, beautiful song

    excellent quality and taste,,,thankyou friend

  26. D.... D....

    Fantastic song and video...  Yes is an amazing band..

  27. a.... ....

    I dedicate this song to my wife Patricia. I often sing to her this song ( we're 15 years together) " if only you knew", to me, means that sometimes I have no words to express myself properly, because I'm not a poet, an artist or a musician, ( YES are plenty so ) so this song, his atmosphere, words and feeling get to the point ( well, now she know ! )

  28. t.... ....

    i think Jon meant to leave it up to our interpretations and our imaginations, as i've herd him say it mean's what you want it to mean. 

  29. h.... T....

    if only you about christ what a better person you would be if only you knew

  30. B.... F....

    This is breathtakingly beautiful...I clicked on the video because I didn't recognize the title; I'm sure I've got the album somewhere. I'll have to dig my CD's out...

  31. M.... ....

    I tend to think this is a song about the Holy Spirit. I'm spiritual and not religious . . .

  32. S.... 2....

    yes..if only He knew...

  33. M.... ....

    I would offer this is a Love song to the Creator . . .

  34. A.... M....

    In MY opinion---THEIR MASTERPIECE.

  35. A.... M....

    Fave song by YES of ALL their works, from Survival on....

  36. M.... S....

    How can someone think that this has something to do with human love? Food for tought...
    YESSSS

  37. S.... S....

    how can anyone dislike this?

    S.... S....

    Sergio Silva It's not my taste, sorry

    S.... S....

    Chase Barber go away

    S.... S....

    it *is* pretty trite; more like jon solo stuff than real yes. yes were capable of so much better than this 4/4 major/minor filler.

  38. R.... D....

    Amazing sound!!

  39. T.... M....

    * * * * *

  40. 9.... ....

    This is absolutely beautiful ... by all means :O
    I'm loving this :) It describes exactly how I feel too about the sweetest angel in the world..

    If only she knew :)

  41. v.... ....

    This song was edited for Rockline in 2000; I believe I still have it on tape. Jon & Alan talked about digitizing availability of songs, and the problem of "no money = no music" and artists getting paid for the releases of their works.
