87. IF I CAN

If I can have the magic wand

I would wave it three times

And make you a pair of wings

So you can fly to me tonight

If I can call out to the Unicorn

I would send him to you

And let you ride upon him

So he can carry you to me

If I can call upon the Wizard

from his lofty kingdom of OZ

I would beg him to chant his magic

And let it lure you to me

If I can convince the Mermaid

Witch under the deep ocean

To use her magic spell and then

Blow unto you her magic potion

But I am a mere human

A mortal with countless flaw

Possessing nothing worthy of pride

Only my boundless love I have for you

So I will never have you for me

Never will I caress your handsome face

It will only be in my dreams that I will see

Where you'll be mine with God's holy grace

68. IF HE LEAVES ME

My life now hangs by a silver thread

from a cliff of dreams and hope and love

If he leaves me then that thread will break

And I shall crash all the way from above

My days are now like a calendar on the wall

Numbered, marked and remembered one by one

If he decides to leave me now I will fall

My dreams, my hope and my breath all gone

I cannot dream or imagine or even think

My life without him it makes me wanna cry

If he leaves me I'm no one, I am nothing

My thread of life will break and I will die

That is

if he leaves me

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…..
