If

If nine lives are to be lived

I feel I've lived them all

Since I last saw your face

If a man dies a thousand deaths

I feel I've died them all

Since I last felt your lips

If looking is forever

Then I've seen eternity

Since last I saw your eyes

If the sky never ends

Neither will father time

Until I hold you once again

If time flies by

So too it was

With you and I

For the moments I held you

Were far to mere

There's no place for me

That doesn't hold your face

The sunrises and sunsets

Only remind me

Of the wind blowing through your hair

When I breathe the morning air

There's nothing but your scent

Rising everywhere

If words make a man foolish

Then such a fool am I

For the only thing I speak of

Is my open heart and soul

And yours

Is the only voice I hear
