If You Only Knew I tell myself I am seeing ghosts They're just projections of the things I need the most 'Cause when you say hello or smile at me That's not a secret code You're tryin to signal me
It's just a trick of my mind What am I hoping to find I need to stop this before one of us gets hurt But when I'm lying awake It feels like such mistake A wasted day 'cause I didn't say a word Oh no
Though I know that this isn't real I cannot help but wonder what you'd feel And though I know that it isn't true I cannot help but wonder what you'd do
If you only knew If you only knew
I tell myself I should wake and see There's not the slightest chance you'd ever fall for me I'm holding on to this fantasy A play that's staged within My dreams and reveries
It's just a trick of my mind Desire's turning me blind Shows me a side of you that simply isn't there And when I'm lying in bed My head, filled with regrets A train of thoughts on a track that leads nowhere Nowhere
Though I know that this isn't real I cannot help but wonder what you'd feel And though I know that it isn't true I cannot help but wonder what you'd do
If you only knew If you only knew If you only knew
If you only knew the way your laugh Shines like a blade But cuts me in half If you only knew the way your smile Haunts me
Though I know that this isn't real I cannot help but wonder what you'd feel And though I know that it isn't true I cannot help but wonder what you'd do
If you only knew If you only knew If you only knew
