If I Could Songtext
von Blue Merle

If I were you
I′d turn this thing around before it runs aground
But I know you
And there's nothing that could ever slow you down
I closed my eyes
Hoping it would all work out in time
But here we are
And there′s nothing I can do to change your mind

'Cause if I could, you know I would
If I could, you know I would
If I could, you know I would, yeah, whoa


I circled once
Then twice before I finally found the words
The sweetest sound
But nothing that you ain't already heard
I always knew
The day would come your ship would run aground
But I know you
And there′s nothing you would do to slow it down
I wish I could slow you down

′Cause if I could, you know I would
If I could, you know I would
If I could, you know I would, yeah, whoa

I should've known my chance was gone
The way you laughed when first we kissed
Another round and I′d have won
But as it was, it never came
Your body spoke a thousand truths
Another shade into my soul
I'm on my knees and begging now
What would it take?

No, no

Down on my knees, ah

′Cause if I could, you know I would
If I could, you know I would
If I could, you know I would, yeah, oh

'Cause if I could, you know I would
If I could, you know I would
If I could, you know I would, yeah, whoa


Oh

If I were you
I′d turn this thing around before it runs aground
