If I Built You A Temple Lyrics

If I built you a temple

 from the bricks of my heart

 Would you stay there forever

 never to tear us apart

 If I gave you a mountain of gold

 would you beg me to let you in, ooh would you?

 To share our dreams of the days to come

 and to find a place where we both will run ooh yeah!

 If I built you a temple

 yeah would you beg me to let you in

 If I built you a temple

 Would you try to stay within oh no!

 If I built you a temple

 The soul I give is all I've got

 If I gave you my soul to keep

 and to treasure it with pride

 Would you stay in these arms girl

 And never to let it slide

 If I built you a staircase

 to the heavens within

 would you share the light 

 under garden trees 

 to walk a million miles 

 in the land of the free ooh yeah!

 If I built you a temple

 would you beg me to let you in

 If I built you a temple

 Would you try to stay within

 If I built you a temple

 Ooh no, the soul I give is all I've got yeah!

 You know it's all I've got

 Through you're a million miles 

 away from me

 our love's so close as any love can be

 and when I'm feeling down 

 I know you'll be there yeah!

 Like a flower born in the early spring

 Just I need of love and the gifts you bring

 So sister above - I think I'm in love

 yeah If I built you a temple

 would you beg me to let you in

 If I built you a temple

 Would you try to stay within oh no!

 If I built you a temple

 The soul I give is all I've got yeah!

 If I built you a temple

 would you beg me to let you in

 If I built you a temple

 Would you try to stay within oh no!

 If I built you a temple

 The soul I give is all I've got
