49. IF I COULD

If I could spin threads of dreams

and weave a cloth of heavens

I would embroider pictures of the stars

and the moon singing angels‘ songs

I would present it to you

To shroud it upon your shoulders

To keep you safe and warm

To shield you from all harm

If I could build a bridge of love

Of cotton candies and rainbow beads

I would build it for you to cross

Over to reach me so that you heal

My longing heart and bring me joy

And in return I make you the happiest

Man in the whole world and galaxy

And I'll be yours until eternity

If I could undo this brocade of life

I would first of all free myself

From all that's tying me down

And I would set myself free

So that I can fly away on eagle's wing

And reach up to the highest heaven

Tied up to you by silver string

Never alone again; free from this longing

If I could return to the beginning of time

And re-write the story of love

I would begin with just me and you

Living the first days in paradise

Listening to the angels' harp

Enjoying every moment living wise

Then I would not have to choose

Between what is good and what to lose

But this is only 'If'.....

And if only things were different then…..
