- If I Could Reach You Lyrics / with translationsIf I Could Reach You
Fifth Dimension
Oh no, don't go It's hours till dawn
And there's no one who'd rather be with you
I know you know other girls like me
I let you take my love
Knowing you don't love me
But if I could reach you some way
If i knew the magic it would take
To love you good enough on the outside
And make you feel it on the inside
Maybe I could make you stay
If I could reach you
The dark is getting light
And you're dressed to go
And never said a word about tomorrow
But if I could reach you some way
If I knew the magic it would take
To love you good enough on the outside
And make you feel it on the inside
Maybe I could make you stay
See you next time
I'll see you next time

If i knew the magic it would take
To love you good enough on the outside
And make you feel it on the inside
Maybe I could make you stay
The dark is getting light
And you're dressed to go
And never said a word about tomorrow
But if I could reach you some way
If I knew the magic it would take
To love you good enough on the outside
And make you feel it on the inside
Maybe I could make you stay
See you next time
I'll see you next time

Just another great song (and last top-ten hit) for the 5th Dimention. A great early 70's ballad (November '72) with terrific background piano accompanying Marilyn McCoo's terrific voice.
