- If Only You Knew Lyrics / with translationsIt was the night
Before the harvest moon
I barely caught my breath
Looking at you
Oh, love is the sweetest pain inside
Oh, and the answer to it all is right there in your eyes
I think I could die tonight
And know that I don't have to live again
And make love for hours 'til our bodies join
And your skin is my skin
If I could take the sun and take the moon
And make tomorrow wait
If only I, if only I knew the way
If I could speak
Release this quiet storm
And let you see my heart
Open and warm
Oh, maybe then you could ease the pain
Oh, maybe this longing in my soul will make you wanna stay
I think I could die tonight
And know that I don't have to live again
And make love for hours 'til our bodies join
And your skin is my skin
If I could take the sun and take the moon
And make tomorrow wait
If only I knew the way
If I could take
The stars and write your name
If I could stop this fire
And make it rain
Oh, I would be free of loving you
Oh, if only you were mine
If only you knew
Before the harvest moon
I barely caught my breath
Looking at you
Oh, love is the sweetest pain inside
Oh, and the answer to it all is right there in your eyes
I think I could die tonight
And know that I don't have to live again
And make love for hours 'til our bodies join
And your skin is my skin
If I could take the sun and take the moon
And make tomorrow wait
If only I, if only I knew the way
If I could speak
Release this quiet storm
And let you see my heart
Open and warm
Oh, maybe this longing in my soul will make you wanna stay
I think I could die tonight
And know that I don't have to live again
And make love for hours 'til our bodies join
And your skin is my skin
If I could take the sun and take the moon
And make tomorrow wait
If only I knew the way
If I could take
The stars and write your name
If I could stop this fire
And make it rain
Oh, I would be free of loving you
Oh, if only you were mine
If only you knew
