LYRICS
作词 : Billy Joel
作曲 : Billy Joel
If I only had the words to tell you，
If you only had the time to understand，
Though I know it wouldn't change your feelings，
And I know you'll carry on the best you can.
If I only had the urge to tell you，
If you only knew how hard it is to say，
When the simple lines have all been taken，
And the radio repeats them ev'ry day.
If I never find the song to sing you，
If you always find it hard to comprehend，
Well, you know there wouldn't be much meaning，
If I had to sing those tired words again.
Life goes on and on，
And tonight will soon be gone，
But if we try we can be sure.
If I only had the words to tell you，
If you only had the time to understand，
But I only have these arms to hold you，
And it's all that you can ask of any man.
La la la la, la la la la，
If I only had the words to tell you，
If you only had the time to understand，
Oh, but I only have these arms to hold you，
And it's all that you can ask of any man。
