If You Were Here

If you were here
I would demonstrate my love again
And dance with you in the rain
If you were here 
The water would wet your dry heart
And ease you from your distrust apart
If you were here
The gladiator in you would unbuckle sword
Those winners are by winners gored
If you were here
I would smell you fresh from the shower
And place in your hair a fragrant flower
If you were here
My faith would flow a liquid stream
And you would be my lollipop dream
If you were here
You would not be there tonight waiting
To smell dew that lovers drink each morning.
