The Lyrics of Terry Hubbard

If They Only Knew!

written 1986 © 1986 - 2010 by Terry Hubbard

 

 

I hear talk about a light come shinin'

if they only knew.

The clock is runnin’ and daylight's risin'

what's it mean to you?

 

I see 'em hidin', but it ain't no use,

what you gonna do when all the tide's in

and the earth's turned loose, if they only knew.

Oh, if they only knew, Oh,  if they only knew. 

They killed some freedom in the peoples' square,

don't you know it's true.

You don't have to go to China if you got to be there,

where you are will do. If they only knew. 

Don't you remember your love,

like a wonder of the spring,

and the Spirit you're a child of?

Don't you hear the angels sing of a light that's shinin'?

If they only knew  Oh, if they only knew.

Just can't slow down, it's goin' too fast.

In a world sown with hate

you gotta make your love last.

There's just one thing you can do, if they only knew. 

Don't you remember your love,

like a wonder of the spring,

and the Spirit you're a child of?

Don't you hear the angels sing of a light that's shinin'?

 If they only knew.

Day of reason with love that's guidin',

Oh, if they only knew, Oh, if they only knew.
