If I Had My Way (with Pierce Pettis)
from Beneath Your Moon - Cogtone 005 - 1994i am driving to your house
and your house is far away
i've got time to think about
all the things i'd like to say
but you have little use for words
though you listen anyway
as i make a big fool of myself
every time i come to stay
if i had one wish come true
i'd be standing right there next to you.
we'd waltz beneath the big red moon
if i had my way
we'd leave our footprints in the dew
walk through orchards thick with peach perfume
i'd chase you through the tall grass too
if i had my way
i'd lift you up, i'd lay you down
we'd dance the gypsy round & round
we'd laugh until the stars went down
if i had my way
if i had one dream come true
i'd be standing right there next to you
we'd waltz beneath the big red moon
if i had my way
i'd lift you up, i'd lay you down
we would dance the gypsy round & round
and laugh until the stars went down
if i had my way
and your house is far away
i've got time to think about
all the things i'd like to say
but you have little use for words
though you listen anyway
as i make a big fool of myself
every time i come to stay
if i had one wish come true
i'd be standing right there next to you.
we'd waltz beneath the big red moon
if i had my way
we'd leave our footprints in the dew
walk through orchards thick with peach perfume
i'd chase you through the tall grass too
if i had my way
i'd lift you up, i'd lay you down
we'd dance the gypsy round & round
we'd laugh until the stars went down
if i had my way
if i had one dream come true
i'd be standing right there next to you
we'd waltz beneath the big red moon
if i had my way
i'd lift you up, i'd lay you down
we would dance the gypsy round & round
and laugh until the stars went down
if i had my way
