I know some orchids in the valley of flowers.
I know some tropical flowers with the long names.
I know the birds that fly miles to migrate for comfort.
Those orchids did not have to shine in the valley of flowers.
Those tropical flowers wouldn't have to bloom during summer.
And, the birds do not have to fly the miles and migrate for comfort.
Nights wouldn't have to turn into days, the sun wouldn't have to burn,
The summer nights did not have to be cooler, nor the sky bluer…
…………………………… if only I had you.
No longer must the orchids shine or the flowers bloom,
and honestly, the rivers could stop flowing or the wind could stop blowing.
If only I had you……….…… the world could go do however and whatever;
Because we'd finally be together... but the sky doesn't have to fall!
The sun doesn't have to burn the night and light the world,
nothing has to be off beam and nothing has to feel right.
If only I had you…. I would care less, the world could stop spinning!
