If I

If my heart could stop hurting, and my smile could be real 
If my life could be altered and I could change how I feel
If life could sometimes feel like more than just a game
If my head could stop spinning at the sound of your name
If holding me could mean something more
If it didn't mean you were closing the door
If it could be harder for you to walk away
If I weren't so scared of a little change
If passion were endless and you didn't let go
If I had a new beginning, could I become whole?
