Alan Menken
If Only (Reprise)
[ARIEL, Spoken]
I've caused you so much trouble. Can you ever forgive me?
[KING TRITON, Spoken]
Why, I've never been prouder. Somehow, in the blink of an eye when my back was turned, you grew up
(Sung)
If only you could stay
And never say goodbye
If only I could make time stop
Believe me, I would try
But fathers have to learn
Their daughters have to grow
And if you truly love them
You must let them go...
[ARIEL]
And oh, I love you so
If only you could know!
[KING TRITON, Spoken]
You love him very much, don't you?
You belong to his world now
