If I Were a Joiner Songtext

If I Were a Joiner Songtext
Why did you leave me?
What did I do?
Toured around Europe
Then cheated on you
Now I′m at the piano
With a paper and pen
But alliteration alone won't bring you back to me again
Oh but
I′m only a singer
It's all I can do
I'm singing a song, a song about you
As though you would listen
As though you′d be swayed
As though you′d fall in love again over something I made
But I'm pouring my heart out all over the page
Because you′ve got to do something in this world
To run away
Yeah but
If I were a joiner
You know what I'd do
(What would I do?)
I′d put up a shelf
A shelf all about you
Yeah all about you
All about you
I know you know that I miss you
I know you know that I cried
I know a clever made alate?
Won't hide the fact that I′ve lied
Being around you
Is so very hard
You're like one more establishment
From which I've been barred
And if I were the landlord
What would I do?
(What would I do?)
I′d open a bar
A bar about you
If I were a joiner
You know what I′d do
(What would I do?)
I'd put up a shelf
A shelf about you
All about you
Yes all about you
All about you
All about you
What did I do?
Toured around Europe
Then cheated on you
Now I′m at the piano
With a paper and pen
But alliteration alone won't bring you back to me again
Oh but
I′m only a singer
It's all I can do
I'm singing a song, a song about you
As though you would listen
As though you′d be swayed
As though you′d fall in love again over something I made
But I'm pouring my heart out all over the page
Because you′ve got to do something in this world
To run away
Yeah but
If I were a joiner
You know what I'd do
(What would I do?)
I′d put up a shelf
A shelf all about you
Yeah all about you
All about you
I know you know that I miss you
I know you know that I cried
I know a clever made alate?
Won't hide the fact that I′ve lied
Being around you
Is so very hard
You're like one more establishment
From which I've been barred
And if I were the landlord
What would I do?
(What would I do?)
I′d open a bar
A bar about you
If I were a joiner
You know what I′d do
(What would I do?)
I'd put up a shelf
A shelf about you
All about you
Yes all about you
All about you
All about you
