lyrics

if I was a tree forever swaying in the yard
I’d still wish for the words to whisper how beautiful you are
if I was a roof standing silent in the wind and rain
I’d count every tile just to protect you one more day

if I were a granddad puttering in yard
I'd build you a horse or a boat or whatever your heart desired
if I was yours for one more day
I would be good with that for all eternity


I would give up the sun and all the stars
to live for another moment in your arms
I could live for a year without water and food
just to prove all this to you

and if i were a motor I’d run and run and run
just to keep your hair waving in the summer sun
if I was yours for one more day
I would be good with that for all eternity
