Lyrics
If you gave me the chance, I would prove to you I'm worth your time
If you gave me the time, I would show you love as deep as the ocean
If you gave me the ocean, I would make waves that caress the sand
If you gave me the sand, I would build a castle in your hand
But lately you haven't been giving me....anything
And I don't know what to do with that
If you gave me the moon, I would light your way all thru the night
If you gave me the night, I would sing the stars a lullabye
If you gave me a song, I would carry it with me wherever I go
If you gave me directions , I would follow, I would follow
And if you gave me the chance to love you
I would love you for all of my life
Better than anyone ever would
More than anyone ever could
I would for you
If you gave me a choice, I would choose to ignore all the signs
If you gave me a sign, I would point the arrow at my heart
If you gave me your heart, I would nurture it just like a child
If you gave me a child, if you gave me a child....well I'm going too far now aren't I?
But if you gave me the chance to love you
I would love you for all of my life
Better than anyone ever would
And more than anyone ever could
I would for you
I would for you
I would for you.........(repeat)
