If I Could See You Now
If I could see you now
Would I see that glow
Upon your face
When we took our vows?
If I could see you now.
If I could see you now
You in your dress of white
Eyes sparkling bright
Lips promising
A lover's night.
If I could see you now.
If I could touch you now
Would I feel the silk
Of your coal dark hair
Your soft, soft skin
Without a blemish there
If I could touch you now.
If I could hold you now
Would it be as before
I went to fight
In this terrible war
Leaving me maimed
And blinded now
Oh God!
If only I could see you now!
