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.
But 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

Hey darling can't you see
What you mean to me
Anything I could do I'd do it for you
Hey 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 a 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?
