If Words Were All I Had Lyrics by Bobb Trimble

Harvest of Dreams

1982

[Verse 1]
If words were all I had
I'd write them all for you
And if my heart could read you these words
They'd pour the morning through
The the angels would sing you to sleep
As the stars come to view
[Bridge]
But you're so far away, a million light years away
So far away in another day
You are so far away, more and more every day
Oh so far away, to the gods I'd pray
To bring you home
[Verse 2]
If your love was all I had
I'd leave the world behind
And if your love would stay in my heart
What better world could I find?
Your world holds the beautiful and warm
Mine holds the cold and unkind
[Bridge]
Oh, you're so beautiful, warm and true and blue
So beautiful, don't know what to do
You are so beautiful, I just can't get through
You're so beautiful, I'm in love with you
When are you coming home?
[Verse 3]
Time touches with a smile
To lighten the scars of anger you try to hide
Releasing those chains that bind
To strengthen the crush on dreams that you hold inside
Then running free for a moment's time
To catch the dreams that slipped away in some endless rhyme
As you now realize what you've lost to time
But if your memory was all I had
Then to hell with it all
