Mike + The Mechanics — If Only lyrics

Lyrics

Still waters always run so deep
I’ve heard you cry in the night And talk in your sleep
Why would you want to,
Keep it all inside?
Now you’re alone,
With nothing but your pride.
If only you’d listened to me Cos I still want you now
I don’t want to be free
If only you listened to me Cos I still feel the loss
And it won’t let me be
I’ve tried talking long into the night
But nothing that I tried to say
Ever came out right
There’s no point in crying
My tears have run dry
I hope that you’re satisfied
If only you’d listen to me Cos I still want you now
I don’t want to be free
If only you listened to me Cos I still feel the loss
And it won’t let me be
