What if

What if things were different
If you could love me more
Our hearts made one from two
A window to your soul

Maybe sorry mattered
Trying was something new
Foregiveness a blessing
What if you loved me still

Sun sets the crescent moon
Glistens the midnight star
Forever my heart aches
Wanting you from afar

If nonsense could make sense
Promises be unbroken
If one more day could mean
My poor old heart would mend

The past long forgotten
With sins where roses grow
If only lonely knew
A tiny glimpse of hope

Sunshine warms the haunted
Sets fire to the pain
Plenty penny wishes
To be with you again
