If

If a picture paints a thousand words

Then why can't I paint you?

The words will never show

The 'You' I've come to knowIf a face could launch a thousand ships

Then where am I to go?

There's no one home but you

You're all that's left me tooAnd when my love for life is running dry

You come and pour yourself on meIf a man could be two places

At one time I'd be with you

Tomorrow and today

Beside you all the wayIf the world should stop revolving

Spinning slowly down to die

I'd spend the end with you

And when the world was throughThen one by one the stars would all go out

Then you and I would simply fly away
