If Only
Embracing Life's Ups and Downs
Lyrics
If it gets you down, well, then I'll take it
If something troubles you, I'm willing to bear it for you.
If it gets you up, well, I don't want it
If something brings you joy or excitement, I don't desire it.
It let you down so broken-hearted
It disappointed you and left you feeling emotionally wounded.
If it gets you down, well, then I want it
If something causes you distress, then I desire to have it.
If only, only
Expresses a sense of longing or regret, repeating the phrase "If only" multiple times, suggesting a wish for a different outcome or circumstance.
If only, only
-If only, only
-If only, only
-We're nothing at all
Reflects a feeling of insignificance or worthlessness.
So blow our mind and make it lazy
To amaze us and cause us to become lethargic or inactive.
Those long, long days with no escaping
Describes prolonged periods without relief or escape.
I hold the wheel to let it go
I control the situation to let it slip away or be free.
Don't want to stop, don't want to know
Expresses a desire to continue without interruption or further knowledge.
If it gets you down, well, just don't blame me
If something causes you distress, don't attribute it solely to me.
If only, only
Repeated expression of longing or regret with the phrase "If only," indicating a wish for different circumstances or outcomes.
If only, only
-If only, only
-If only, only
-If only, only
-If only, only
-If only, only
-If only, only
-We're nothing at all
Reiterates a feeling of insignificance or worthlessness.
