If I were an aeroplane |
|
And all you had left was pocket change |
|
I would fly the whole wide world for you |
|
Like a bird takes to the skies of blue |
|
But I'm just a simple guy |
|
And I didn't wave when your train went by |
|
Because I really didn't want to believe |
|
That you were speeding away |
|
Away from me |
|
If I were a diplomat |
|
I could live wherever I put my hat |
|
And I'd build an island just for you |
|
And me |
|
Total population: 2 |
|
But I'm just an ordinary man |
|
Whose silly dreams just don't fit the plans |
|
Of a border town run by guards |
|
Between two countries and |
|
Between two hearts |
|
I thought I'd change it if I could |
|
But now I'm not so sure I ever would |
|
It's when you find |
|
That life is not a movie show |
|
And in your mind then it really smarts |
|
In all this time |
|
I thought perhaps you'd want to know just |
|
What it's like to be in love |
|
If I were a novelist |
|
I'd write a book for the best-seller lists |
|
And in it I'd never have to let you go |
|
And by the last page everyone would know |
|
That I'm just a silly boy |
|
Whose words are a little shy and a little bit coy |
|
But they're not meant for anyone but you |
|
And all that matters is you knowing it's all true |
|
I thought I'd change it if I could |
|
But now I'm not so sure I ever would |
|
So should I love and lose or just not love at all? |
|
It's up to you to try it |
|
Because up above |
|
I'd like to hope and think and know that |
|
You and I |
|
We could make it |
|
You and I |
|
We could make it |
|
You and I |
|
We could make it |
