Whisper to Me

By Bruce Clifford

If I had the time tell you
Take your hand and really show you
What’s come and gone is moving along
Not taking it not making it
Just going along

If I had the heart to show you
Take the time to really know you
What’s come and gone is really deep
Not making or taking it on easy street
Hanging out with all those strangers I meet
Just going along
Going along

Things could have been different if you
Each moment that passes
Every single word you whisper
Whisper to me

If I had the mind to hold you
Take my soul and really hold you
What’s happen before will happen again
Not taking or making or trying to pretend
Moonlit walks to the bitter end
Just going along
Going along

If I had the time to tell you
Take your hand and really hold you
What’s come and gone is moving along
Not taking it not making it
just going along
