Mountain Goats - Fault Lines lyrics

Verse One

If I were you

If he were mine

I would give him my whole world

Until the end of time

If I were you

If I were his

I would always let him know

How precious his love is

 

Pre Chorus

If for one day he wanted me

I would show him all that love's supposed to be

 

Chorus

If he ever called my name

I'd never be too far

If he ever needed hope

I'd give him all my heart

If he ever made a wish

I'd try to reach him a star

That's what I'd do

He could always count on me

If I were you

 

Verse Two

You see his smile

You know his touch

But without the things I feel for him

It doesn't mean as much

You have his heart

And he has mine

Though I know there's nothing I can say

To change his mind

 

Pre Chorus

But if he chose me instead of you

I would show him all the things my love can do

 

Chorus
