If only I

If only I could change the world
I would run right back to you
Make things count when much needed
Without thinking much it through

If only I had some courage
I would tear away my pride
And share some words of kindness
Like we lived it, many times

If only I was taller
I would bring you down the moon
I would wrap it up with colors
With yellow, reds and blues

If only I had that number
From the baker down the street
I would bake you chocolate cookies
Fudge vanilla and some ice cream

If only I knew tomorrow
I would try to make things right
And hope my path before me
Would guide me through my nights

If only I was seven
I would stay outside and play
And start my life all over
To somehow find our way
