If Only

(Dolly Parton) The word "If", just two tiny letters Says so much for something so small The biggest little word in existence; Never answers, just questions us all If regrets were gold, I'd be rich as a queen If teardrops were diamonds, how my face would gleam If I'd loved you better, I wouldn't be lonely If only, if only, if only But looking back now I see clearly With my twenty-twenty hindsight Oh, but don't think I haven't paid dearly, 'Cause you could be in my arms tonight If regrets were gold, I'd be rich as a queen If teardrops were diamonds, how my face would gleam How I let you go, I swear is beyond me But if only; ah, if only; oh, if only I could start over, if I could go back Have the power to change things Then I would do that But I listened to others like a fool, Oh, shame on me But if only you would just come back If only, dare I even ask Oh, if only --- If Only - Dolly Parton
