[Intro]

[Verse]
If we were children I would bake you a mud pie
Warm and brown beneath the sun
Never learned to climb a tree but I would try
Just to show you what I d done
[Chorus]
Oh what I wouldn t do
If I had you, babe, I had you
Oh what I wouldn t do
If I had you, babe
[Verse]
If I were old, my dearest, you would be older
But I would crawl upon your lap
Wrap a blanket âround our frail little shoulders
And I d die happily like that
[Chorus]
Oh what I wouldn t do
If I had you, babe, I had you
Oh what I wouldn t do
If I had you, babe, if I had you

[Bridge]
So lace your hands âround the small of my back and I will kiss you like a king
I will be your bride, I ll keep you warm at night
I will sing, I will sing
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
It was now and we were both in the same place
Didn t know how to say the words
With my heart ticking like a bomb in a birdcage
I left before someone got hurt
[Chorus/outro]
Oh what I wouldn t do
If I had you, babe, I had you
Oh what I wouldn t do
If I had you, babe, if I had you
