If Only (From "The Little Mermaid Live!")

If only you could know the things I long to say

If only I could tell you what I wish I could convey

It's in my every glance, my heart's an open book

You'd see it all at once if only you would look

If only you could glimpse the feelings that I feel

If only you would notice what I'm dying to reveal

The dreams I can't declare, the needs I can't deny

You'd understand them all if only you would try

All my secrets, you would learn them

All my longings, you'd return them

Then the silence would be broken

Not a word would need be spoken

What is it about her that's so wonderfully, impossibly familiar?

Why do I feel dizzy in a way I've only felt but once before?

How come when she looks at me it seems like time stops moving

Almost like the way it did that day upon the shore?

But that voice, if only it were true

If only for a while

But that voice, if only you would notice

How I ache behind my smile

Where's that voice? I guess you never will

I guess it doesn't show

But if I never find a way to tell you so

Oh, what I would give if only you could know

Memories fade, strange how they blur

But when she calls to me, I'll know it's her

If only
