IF AND ONLY IF

If only if time had no bearings on us
It is just an illusion after all said and done
That we age and that buildings fall…
Does that really mean time exists?
Between you and I there is no more time
It is all the while and all the moment in one
I can sit and hold your hand for a day and or eternity
It would feel the same; it would last just as long
And if only if we could ignore the clocks
It would evaporate the need to get up and go
Each time I walk down the steps
To turn around and catch a glimpse
Of the morning in your eyes
Waving me good bye
If only if we did not know what to do
The streetlights would remain in tact
The holes in the pavement would seal
When and then I could just be
Be who I always knew I was
If and only if the clouds would move away
From your heart to let the light through
To aid and gear the innocence
I can only pray that time will give us a part
And we can read the notes in our eyes
Hear the melodies of our souls
And let them unite
Collaborate on a beautiful sound, unlike no other
If and only if we could retain
Two hearts as one.
