If… Songtext
If you
Get out
Before September
Remember
That I′m
Still inside
But I'm dry
I′m dry
And you
When you try
To make a difference
You're so different
And then I
Try
And just die
I die
You know
That I need
You more than I want ya
But I want ya
For all time
So I
I guess on the line
It's all that I can do
To sing these stupid songs to you
I give up half my time
Just trying to think up words that rhyme
I ain′t getting any younger
But you wouldn′t know
So it's on
With the show
Sometimes
A smoke
A drink and a ponder
Can work wonders
When you′re down
Takes your frown
Turns it 'round
Around
And you
When you try
To make a difference
You′re no different
Than when I
Try
And just die
I die
...and now
That your day-
Dream is forgotten
And forgiven
And the world
Has been saved
Be brave
It's all that I can do
To sing these stupid songs to you
I give up half my time
Just trying to think up words that rhyme
I ain′t getting any younger
But you wouldn't know
'Cause I walk
In shadow
And I never ever
Really show my face
But I′m only ever seen
In the right placeIf you
Get out
Before September
Remember
That I′m
Still inside
But I'm dry
I′m dry
And you
When you try

You're so different
