~If Only~
As each day passes so quickly And the nights seem an eternity Without you resting by my side For now I hold you in my dreams.
If only to hold you once more And to touch your precious face Consume and inhale your presence Enough to fill a life time of days. Once more to say I love you To see love in your eyes for me And to hear you whisper in return Words that make me complete. Each night kneeling at our bedside Softly whispering prayer from heart Creating a loving chain to guide me As a stairway to heaven, where you are. The thoughts of you are constant Never a moment of day passes by I can hear echoes of your laughter That lifts my heart ever so high. My pain is comforted with knowing You suffer in earthly form no more For now you ve touched his loving face And kissed the hands of our precious Lord.
