If

If a picture paints a thousand words

Then why can't I paint you?

The words will never show

The you I've come to know

If a face could launch a thousand ships

Then where am I to go?

There's no one home but you

You're all that's left me too

And when, my love

For life is running dry

You come and pour

Yourself on me

If a girl could be two places at one time

I'd be with you

Tomorrow and today

Beside you all the way

If the world should stop revolving

Spinning slowly down to die

I'd spend the end with you

And when the world was through

Then one by one

The stars would all go out

Then you and I

Would simply fly ...

Then one by one

The stars would all go out

Then you and I

Would simply fly away
