If

If - Howard Keel

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 know

If 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 to

And when my love for life is running dry

You come and pour yourself for me

If a man could be two places at one time

I'd be with you

Tommorrow and today beside you all the way

If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die

I'd spend the end with you and when the world was through

Then one by one the stars will all go out

Then you and I will simply fly away
