IF I WERE...

                        If I were a memory I’d hold you there forever
                    Reminding you of the good times we shared together

                                                  

                            If I were a smile on your face I would stay

                          Never to let sadness chase me too far away

                                                  

                   If I were a teardrop I’d roll gently down from your eyes
                           Not to burn much but to mend your sweet cries

                                                  

                      If I were a hand I’d want you to hold me in your own
                             Carry me through life .. even when I’m grown
                                                      
                          If I were feet I would stay inline with you
                                So I could be with you in all that you do                                                      
                                If I were a shadow I would always follow
                           We’d face things together in all the tomorrows

                                                      

                            If I were pain I’d stay far away from the start
               To make sure you never felt me or I never broke your heart

                                                                       

              If I were a song I’d be a sweet sound to your  ear                             

                        To keep up your hopes and carry you thru the years

                                                      

                               If I were strength I’d give you my all
                               I’d hold you high and never let your fall

                                                      

                                If I were your heart I’d be steady and true
                          I’d be there in every beat; staying strong for you

                                                                        

                               If I were the sun I’d shine down upon your face
                        Illuminate your smile and radiate through your grace

                                                     

                                   If I were a star I’d sparkle like your eyes
                          I would look upon your life and never stop my shine

                                                      

                              I don’t know how good at those things I could be
                                 I’m not any of them but this I want you to see

                                                       

                                 If I were a friend I couldn’t let you down
                       I’d never let you fall or walk away from me with a frown

                                                                           

                                  If I were a friend I would hold your hand
                            I would be with you always, I hope you understand

                                                          

                                   If I were a friend I would give you my all
                            And though it’s not much, I’ll be there when you call

                                                           

                                  If I were a friend I’d be in every memory too
                             When you laughed, when you cried, I’d be with you

                                                                                

                         I CAN be these things, it’s not impossible to be a friend
                                 I CAN be your best and I’ll be here till the end

                                                             

                                     If I were forever, you would be too
                                     Together forever – ME and YOU...
