if only

Sometimes i wonder- what if i could take on your pain as my own?
if it's still being felt does it count in the cosmic book?

why does pain come more to those who it more greatly debilitates?
i wouldnt be missing so much life if it was me.

i deserve it more
why?

why cant i take some of it off your back to ease just a little.
why cant there be any words to soothe, or give hope?
why cant you feel what is in my heart.

it is all for you
i wish you could know how i love.
deep inside is my love for you
i wish you could know

if you could feel it
there would be no doubt
no question
no motive
to stop running

no reason
no thought
to find fault

no hate
no fear
no "i cant"s

if i could take it i would.
from the deepest of me
to take more than you have
so you could be even more
if only i could
