If I Could Songtext
von 1927

If I could paint, I′d paint a portrait of you
The sunlight in your eyes, a masterpiece of truth
And a single tear like a silent prayer
That's shining so much brighter than a diamond ever dared
If I could do anything at all, I′d do it for you

If I could write, I'd write a book for you
A tale of hidden treasures with an I.O.U.
And a million words wouldn't say a thing
That won′t be said in three words, where love′s the central theme
If I could do anything at all, I'd do it for you

Darling, can′t you see
What you mean to me?
Anything I could do, I'd do it for you
Darling, don′t you know
Just how far I'd go?
Anything I could do, I′d do it for you


Sometimes I feel so second-rate
Seems loving you was my greatest mistake
I know I'm insecure and love don't keep score
But I wish I could give you more

If I could play, I′d play up a storm for you
A raging sea of passion that you never knew
Every whispered sound would touch your heart
And maybe for a moment, I could be your favourite star

If I could do anything at all
If I could, I′d give you more
If I could do anything at all
I'd do it for you

And darling, can′t you see
What you mean to me?
Anything I could do, I'd do it for you
And darling, don′t you know
Just how far I'd go?
Anything I could do, I′d do it for you


And darling, can't you see
You mean the world to me?
Anything I could do, I'd do it for you
And darling, don′t you know
Just how far I′d go?
Anything I could do, I'd do it, do it for you

I′d do it
Do it for you
