If I Could Only Bring You Back

Joe Diffie · Tougher Than Nails [2004]

Got a boat, got a car, got a house with a yard

I'm still workin' the best job I've ever had

But I'd give it all away, every dollar that I've made

If I could only bring you back



There's a door that I keep closed, there are boxes full of clothes

But it's memories, I'm wishin' I could pack

I would retrace every step, say the things I should have said

If I could only bring you back



But there's no words I can say, not a prayer, I can pray

No road that you can take back to my arms

But you'll never be gone, our love will live on

As long as there's a beat in my heart



There's a smile that I still see, a voice callin' out to me

And a longing in my soul, I've never had

I wish I could touch your face, I would even take your place

If I could only bring you back



But there's no words I can say, not a prayer, I can pray

No road that you can take back to my arms

But you'll never be gone, my love will live on

As long as there's a beat in my heart



Got a boat, got a car, got a house with a yard

I'm still workin' the best job I've ever had

But I'd give it all away, every dollar that I've made

If I could only bring you back

If I could only bring you back
