If I had you, I'd spend hours just staring into your eyes
If I had you, I'd never forget that I had won grand prize
If I had you, I'd spend all day running my fingers through your hair
If I had you, I'd make a hobby outta buying you sexy underwear
That's what I would do if I had you, it's true.
If I had you, I'd leave you love notes in the pockets of your favorite jeans
If I had you, I'd be so completely in love just like back in my teens
If I had you, I'd rent an old biplane and write your name in the sky
If I had you, I could tell you I love you every day and never ever have to lie
That's what I would do if I had you, it's true.
If I had you, I'd get a tattoo with your name right across my face
You could kiss every letter, bring our lips together, my sweet angel, full of grace
If I had you, I'd be by your side every day as we grew old
If I had you, I'd write Neil Young a letter, and tell him I found his heart of gold
That's what I would do if I had you, it's true
If I had you in my arms, I'd never be able to resist your charms
And I wouldn't try, love you 'till I die, write your name in the sky
If I had you, we could get us a dog and name it after the first place we kissed
If I had you, I could finally cross the last thing off of my list
If I had you, I could finally get up off of my hands and knees
If I had you, I could finally stop beggin' God please, please, please
That's what I would do if I had you, it's true
If I had you by my side, I wouldn't waste one minute making you my bride
I'd get down on my knees and ask you please to say I do
That's what I would do if I had you, it's true
And every night I'd hold you tight
So every day, I kneel and I pray for you
That's how it will be when I have me, you'll see.
