If Only Lyrics

[based on "IF ONLY :" by Christina M. Riggs]

 

 Here I sit in my cell

 Plain white, stone cold walls.

 All alone with my thoughts, memories

 and my regrets to keep me company.

 WISHING ONLY IF . . . 

 Dreaming of holding my babies,

 hearing their tiny voices and laughter.

 Watching them grow up.

 Dreaming I could see and touch

 my Mom without the glass.

 IF ONLY . . .

 IF ONLY . . . 

 I HAD REACHED OUT!

 Dreaming of feeling wet grass on bare feet.

 The sun on my face, wind in my hair.

 Watching the stars 

 Feeling peace, hope, happiness, and belonging

 IF ONLY . . . I' D REACHED OUT!

 Reality, I' m alone on DEATH ROW.

 With no sense of hope, peace, or happiness.

 Day in, day out, I relive my failures, regrets

 

 And that terrible night, knowing I'm

 to blame for losing my babies.

 Realizing that what I dream of most

 Could have been reality for me

 

 Could have been reality for them

 

 IF ONLY . . . I' D REACHED OUT!

 

 Here I sit in my cell

 Plain white, stone cold walls.

 All alone with my thoughts, memories

 and my regrets to keep me company.

 

 WISHING ONLY IF . . .

 I 'D REACHED OUT!
