Lyrics
If I Was The Ground

(Verse 1)
If I was the ground
Would you be the rain?
Pour your love on down
Make me wet again
If my lips were parched
And I was desert dry
Would you let me drink
Till my thirst was satisfied?
(1st Chorus)
If you would be my woman
If you let me be your man
Baby, I will be the ground on which you stand
(Verse 2)
If I was the ground
Would you be the sun?
Shine your love on down
Till the day was done
Would you warm my soil
So that things could grow?
Then whenever you toil
You'll get to reap whatever you sow
(2nd Chorus)
If you would be my woman
If you let me be your man
Baby, I will be the best damn piece of land
(Bridge)
No, I wouldn't mind
If you walked all over me
In fact if you could walk on water
I'd want to be the deep blue sea
And if you made me your prisoner
I'd never want to be set free
I'd be so happy when
You locked me in
And threw away the key
(Verse 3)
If I was your "...ever after..."
Would you be my "...happily..."?
Put the two of us together
And baby, that's just the way we'd be
I'd be your knight in shining armor
If you would only be my queen
But if I was just your puppet
Then baby, I'd be happy
Anytime you pulled my strings
(3rd Chorus)
Yeah, if you would be my woman
If you let me be your man
Your each and every wish would be my command
(Final chorus)
If you would be my woman
If you let me be your man
Baby, I would be like putty in the palm of your hand
