If I Could
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Take me to another place, she said
Take me to another time
Run with me across the oceans
Float me on a silver cloud
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would and I'd take you now
Stay with me till time turns over
I want to feel my feet leave the ground
Take me where the whispering breezes
Can lift me up and spin me around
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would and I'd take you now
Hear you laughing as we go
Flipping backward through the doors and through the windows
I'm melting into nothing
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would and I'd take you now
