What If I Was
from Falling Doves by The Intricate Melody
lyrics
What if I was caught in a rip
would you swim out to save me
before I had my last bad thing to drink.
What if I was caught in a plane that had no wings
would you come up to meet me in mid-air
and put them back on again no---
A foreign apparition
Much like my love for you girl
Please won't you understand
You and me with more than need be
Doing good when all is bad
I won't be leaving
and I won't ask
What if I was more than lovely
or complicate any
Question that you have
What if I was buried alive
Would you look through the shadows
Or leave me to die
What if I was needing you here
Would you take that for joking
or find me again
A foreign apparition
Much like my love for you girl
Please won't you understand
You and me with more than need be
Doing good when all is bad
I won't be leaving
and I won't ask
What if I was more than lovely
or complicate any
Question that you have
(chorus repeats)
would you swim out to save me
before I had my last bad thing to drink.
What if I was caught in a plane that had no wings
would you come up to meet me in mid-air
and put them back on again no---
A foreign apparition
Much like my love for you girl
Please won't you understand
You and me with more than need be
Doing good when all is bad
I won't be leaving
and I won't ask
What if I was more than lovely
or complicate any
Question that you have
What if I was buried alive
Would you look through the shadows
Or leave me to die
What if I was needing you here
Would you take that for joking
or find me again
A foreign apparition
Much like my love for you girl
Please won't you understand
You and me with more than need be
Doing good when all is bad
I won't be leaving
and I won't ask
What if I was more than lovely
or complicate any
Question that you have
(chorus repeats)
