"IF I HAD YOU NOW"
By Tom Tognaci
I called your name. I called it out loud.
I called your name into the crowd.
But when you walked away
The concrete cracked.
And with every single step
I wished you back.
Crimes of the heart, they say
Can make a girl walk away
From all that's good
And all that's true
But the last thing I ever wanted
Was to hurt you.
But if I had you now, you wouldn't walk away.
I would change, some how, what I did or didn't say.
That's if I had you now, you wouldn't walk
Instead you'd be running my way.
Well, I called your name. I called it out loud.
I called your name into the crowd.
But when you walked away
The words couldn't break loose.
And they tightened up around me
Like a hangman's noose.
