If Only

If only you knew
that even after death
that I will still try
to be by your side

If I only could hold you tight
for every single night
as long as you knew
that I still love you
and nothing
will make that untrue

If only we knew
that the day
would have come so sudden
we would hold
each other's had
and never let go

If only I knew
that my end
would hurt my wife
I would have tried harder
to keep my life

If only she didn't cry
then some pain
might subside
but until the day she dies
and comes to heaven to me
I will never, ever
leave her emotionally

and if only my death
has never happen
then I would still be alive
next to her side
smiling away
thinking,
we have it all good

If only
If only
