If Only I Was

I stared into the crowd, hearts of many with open ears My heart was pounding and I froze in my in my thoughts The microphone stood idly by, and I felt as if my voice left me all at once Paralyzed I felt my tounge begin to dance, and I sang I sang my heart out, I sang with my soul The crowd began to weep to my lyrics A melody of a distant love awoke with in the air I felt my lungs top to their peak as I sang the last few words As a poet I pen to her, my one and only I write to her beauty, her scent, her touch Her smile drives my heart into overdrive and I speed in affection If only I could be a singer I would sing to her song I drown in my own flaws to see I sing to choke on my own tears Will I ever believe, will I ever sing If only I could sing, I would sing her a song
