Song: If I Had You
Artist: Joe Purdy
Album: This American (2010)
I can say I knew you well, as well as anybody could
I can say I knew you when we were young
And a long time ago, took your hand, pulled you close
You pulled away and blamed the cold and the time
CHORUS:
If I was young I would go back
And pick you up against your will
Take you with me everywhere that I go
If I had you I d give money
And all the love that you could hold
And every morning we d go dancing
If I had you I would be gold
They say not to dwell on the things that we can t have
And to leave what s been done in the past
But the memories come in
And some get left behind
But the sun won t go away just cause you ask
CHORUS:
If I was young I would go back
And pick you up against your will
Take you with me everywhere that I go
If I had you I d give money
And all the love that you could hold
And every morning we d go dancing
If I had you I would be gold
If I had you I would be gold
Still sometimes late at night
In my dreams, I ll drift away
To the place I left alone for so many years
And there you are, just like before
And here I am just like today
As I wake up, I ll watch you off and disappear
CHORUS:
If I was young I would go back
And pick you up against your will
Take you with me everywhere that I go
If I had you I d give money
And all the love that you could hold
And every morning we d go dancing
If I had you I would be gold
If I had you I would be gold
