If I Knew |
| If I knew where the wild dove flew |
| I would not tell the hunter, but I would tell you |
| Though they say you’re not a brave man, hardly a man at all |
| You would not shoot the wild things, like brave men in the fall |
| Mmmm mm |
| If I knew where calypso bloomed |
| I would not tell the ladies, but I would tell you |
| For you would not take the flower, for money or for love |
| Or harm a single petal, 'cause you would not shoot the dove |
| Mmmm mm |
| If I knew where our green love grew |
| I would not tell the others, but I would tell you |
| For 'though the world may call you craven, I know it is not true |
| And 'though a sword may hang between us, my songs are all for you |
| Mmmm mm |
