If You Were Still In Love With Me

Jan 29

If you were still in love with me, I would call you now

even though I know you’re sleeping

I’d talk to you about nothing and everything!

I’d pour my heart out

and you’d hear the tears in my voice

and turn them into laughter

If you were still in love with me

If you were still in love with me, I would wake you from your dreams

and tell you mine

Each, in some way, would involve you!

I’d ramble on

and in each word, you’d hear the pain I feel for not having realized them

and you would soothe me and tell me it was all right

If you were still in love with me

If you were still in love with me, we wouldn’t be apart now,

I wouldn’t long for you as I do

and I wouldn’t regret not having said the words I should’ve said

I would dwell in your warmth

and the taste of your love would still be moist on my lips

tantalizing me and fueling my hunger for more

If… you were still in love with me
