If Only You Lyrics

Basia Bulat

I'm giving up
I'm going home
I'm leaving you behind

A sorry suit
No substitute
I've never been so tired

I tried before
I wanted more
No matter what you've had

If only you, you, you, you
You, you, you would have the heart to take it back
If only you, you, you, you
You, you, you would ever have the heart to ask

And now you've said
Too many times
That trouble's walking by

I've met him once
Soft lies before
But never so unkind

I'll stand aside
I'll walk behind
No matter what you've had

If only you, you, you, you
You, you, you would have the heart to take it back

If only you, you, you, you
You, you, you would ever have the mind to ask

No, no no no, that I've been this way before
I'll find my way out of any game of yours
You can't deny when it's me you're thinking of
And I'll play along just to give it up

So now I know
I've said hello
To Jekyll and to Hyde

The trouble is
I still can't say who
I want by my side

All truth be told
I love them both
And I'm no better half

If only you, you, you, you
You, you, you would have the heart to take it back
If only you, you, you, you
You, you, you would ever have the heart to ask
