If Only

If only i
could make you smile
even
for just a little while
my life would be complete...

If I could walk
through all your trials
calm you when
your feelin riled
my life would be complete....

If I could bring you
happiness
make your life
a sweet success
my life would be complete....

If I could hold you
tenderly
dry each tear
so gingerly
my life would be complete....

If you could love me
just a while
eternity
would record the smile
of a life that was complete....
