In the shadows, seek the proving.
If only wishes had the power,
To bring forth joy in darkest hour,
I'd gather every hope, each gleam,
And build a world from every dream.
If only tears could wash away,
The pain that lingers day by day,
I'd let them flow, a cleansing stream,
Awake to life, a newfound dream.
If only love could heal the scars,
Reach across the void, touch the stars,
We'd hold each other, never lonely,
And whisper softly, "If only..."
