if i were

if i were a tree and u are my leaf

i shall keep my hold to let not you fall

nourish your soul that you may live

and never wither, if i were, i would

if i were the sky and u are my star

i shall keep away the nasty clouds

that shroud your light, sapping your dreams

taking away your life, if i were, i shall

if i were the ocean and u are my shore

i shall caress you every morning with my gentle waves

take away the debris that life had befell

passing you thru without a care, if i were, i will

if i were the night and u are my dreams

i shall hold back the hands of time

to keep away the dawn from coming

that you and i may be together

for yet another stolen minute in the hours of the day

if i were a heart, and you are my love

i shall beat a million times faster

making sure you live, and i too shall

understand and fight for my being

if i were i and you are mine

then words need not be told nor written

for the reason that lies within

shall thrive in mine and yours too

never asking, not once doubting

how, whereto and why...
