If you could see me now,

the one who said that he'd rather roam,

the one who said he'd rather be alone.

If you could only see me now.

If I could hold you now

and just for a moment if I could make you mine,

just for a while hold back the hands of time.

If I could only hold you now.

CH; But I've been too long in the wind, too long in the rain,

Takin' any comfort that I can.

Lookin' back and longing for the freedom of my chains,

Lyin' in your lovin' arms again.

If you could see me now

singin' somewhere in the lonely night,

dreamin' of the arms that held me tight.

If you could only see me now.
