If You Were Mine
(Alison Young © 2004)
- MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
- MP3 play whole song, lo-fi (modem)
I feel your gaze, I meet your eyes, I fall outside of time
I know if I were in your arms we'd redefine the word 'sublime'
Yet I don't try to satisfy this yearning 'cause I know that I
I couldn't love you more if you were mine
Oh sure, I've loved some others in the normal human way
Complete with sweet caresses and someone to say "How was your day?"
Those passions withered over time while this one ripens on the vine
I couldn't love you more if you were mine
So if my supply of sighs should last a lifetime
I'll spin them into songs for you to play
It's no more a chore to cherish you from far than near
and how I love to wish upon your star, my dear
Let's just forget those things I said, those little tears I cried
I'll be the moon that orbits you, you'll be the sun that makes me shine
We'll have our secret galaxy where no one knows but you and me
I couldn't love you more if you were mine
I couldn't love you more if you were mine
