California Dreams If You Only Knew
The moment we said goodbye
I felt something in me die
But a man can't break down and cry
And say "Please don't go"
The moment I walked away
I knew I'd regret that day
But I was too proud to say
I still need you so
CHORUS:
If you only knew
What was in my heart
We wouldn't spend a single minute more apart
If you only knew
What was in my soul
You would know that I need you to make me whole
And I'd be back with you
If you only knew
I thought I was being strong
But I see now that I was wrong
Now I know that you still live on
Right here by my side
In dreams I still see your face
You're a memory time won't erase
You're a love that I can't replace
I wish I'd never tried
CHORUS
If you could only see me on my knees at night
Praying that I'll find a way to make it right
It's true that now I know
That I was crazy then
And I'd give my life to have you back again
If you only knew
What was in my heart
(What was in my heart)
We wouldn't spend a single minute more apart
(Single minute more apart)
If you only knew
(What was in my soul)
You would know that I need you to make me whole
If you only knew
(What was in my heart)
We wouldn't spend a single minute
(Single minute more apart)
I'd be back loving you
If you only knew
