Song language: English
If I Was |
| If I was a soldier |
| Captive arms I’d lay before her |
| If I was a sailor |
| Seven oceans I’d sail to her |
| If I was a wiser man |
| Would other men reach out and touch me? |
| If I was a kinder man |
| Dishing up love for a hungry world |
| Tell me would that appease her? |
| I want to please her again |
| If I was a painter |
| I’d paint a world that couldn’t taint her |
| If I was a leader |
| On food of love from above I would feed her |
| If I was a poet |
| All my love and burning words I would show it |
| If I was her lover |
| Her eyes in kisses I would cover |
| Come here my baby |
| Oh, they can’t touch you now |
| I’ll keep you save and warm |
| I’ll never leave you at all |
| Come here my baby |
| Oh they won’t touch you |
| Dishing up love for a hungry world |
| Tell me would that appease you |
| I want to please you again |
| If I was a soldier |
| Captive arms I’d lay before her |
| If I was a sailor |
| Seven oceans I’d sail to her |
| If I was a painter |
| I’d paint a world that couldn’t taint her |
| If I was a leader |
| On food of love from above I would feed her |
| If I was a poet |
| All my love and burning words I would show it |
| If I was her lover |
| Her eyes in kisses I would cover |
