If Only If Only

If only my eyes could not see; lunges deceased
If only humans could let hatred be; set love free
If only the night wasn't so dark; the moon so bright

If only, if only the sun would come out

If only birds still sung; the butterfly's fly away
If only ten thousands lady bugs could give ten thousands hugs; ten thousands fire flays could make dreams come alive

If only, if only the Forest still grow

If only the sea wasn't so rough; rocks could stand a chance
If only mother was god on the lips and harts of children; not a firm hand

If only, if only hope never died

If only god did exists, Jesus never loved us
If only the bombs didn't got off; Hiroshima and Nagasaki all at once

If only, if only some day came

If only people shared I love you; the world would change
