if i could lyrics

If I were you
Turn this thing around before it runs aground
But I know you
There's nothing that could ever slow you down

I closed me eyes
Hoping it would all work out in time
Here we are
And there's nothing I can do to change your mind

'Cause if I could you know I would
And if I could you know I would
And if I could you know I would

I circled once
Twice before I finally found the words
The sweetest sound
But nothing that you ain't already heard

I always knew
The day would come your ship would run aground
But I know you
And there's nothing you would do to slow it down
I wish I could slow it down

'Cause if I could you know I would
And if I could you know I would
If I could you know I would yeah

I should've known my chance was gone
The way you laughed when first we kissed
Another round and I'd have won
But as it was it never came

Your body spoke a thousand truths
Another shade into my soul
I'm on my knees and begging now
What would it take?

I'm down on my knees

'Cause if I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
If I could you know I would yeah

'Cause if I could you know I would
If I could you know I would
If I could you know I would yeah

If I were you
I'd turn this thing around before it runs aground
