Blue Merle If I Could Lyrics

If I Could Lyrics

If I were you I'd turn this thing around 

Before it runs aground 

But I know you and there's nothing 

That could ever slow you down 

I closed my eyes hoping 

It would all work out in time 

But here we are 

And there's nothing I could do 

To change your mind 



'Cause if I could you know I would 

If I could you know I would 

If I could you know I would 

Yeah, oh 



I circled once then twice 

Before I finally found the words 

The sweetest sound but nothing 

That you ain't already heard 

I always knew the day would come 

Your ship would run aground 

But I know you and 

There's nothing you would do 

To slow it down 

I wish I could slow you down 



'Cause if I could you know I would 

If I could you know I would 

If I could you know I would 



I should've known 

My chance was gone 

The way you laughed 

When we first kissed 

Another round and I'd have won 

But as it was it never came 

You body spoke a thousand truths 

Another shade into my soul 

I'm on my knees and begging now 

What would it take? 



Solo 



I'm down on my knees 



'Cause if I could you know I would 

If I could you know I would 

If I could you know I would 



'Cause if I could you know I would 

If I could you know I would 

If I could you know I would 



If I were you I'd turn this thing around 

Before it runs aground
