Lyrics
She spins tales to get caught in fantasy
Asks the stars to uncover her destiny
She has his love but she?s just not swept away
I?d be happy she?d say If Only
Stuffs her bags says its not fun anymore
The answers got to be through the next door
500 miles to the sunrise of her dreams
The brochure paints such a rosy scene
She wants and she wishes it?s always something
That?s out of her reach it could be the one thing
If Only She?d Say If Only then she?d be Okay
If Only She?d Say If Only Yeah Someday
The city bliss is now reality
And she wears friends like needless luxury
The midday sun burns intentions with regret
Desperate, she takes all that she can get
CHORUS
Staring down the sunset of her days
Dreams all fade into the dirty haze
The stroke of twelve and the romance dies again
If only she?d kept what might have been
