Lyrics
Lately I've been thinking, just how my life would be,
If you'd ever give our love a chance, and what if you belonged to me?
I've watched you from a distance and it's tearing me apart,
It's killing me that you can't see your tracks across my heart,
Chorus
I'd bring you breakfast in the morning,
Sometimes we'd lay around 'til noon,
Then I'd pull out my guitar, we'd sing an old James Taylor tune,
Head off to the coast and never worry 'bout the time,
That's what I would, that's what I would do, If you were mine,
2nd
Sometimes when I'm lying in my bed awake at night,
I close my eyes and dream you here, and everything seems right,
Though may never share your touch or feel you next to me,
I spend most my days and nights thinking just how it would be,
Chorus
Bridge
If you were mine, I would not take you for granted,
If you were mine, I would stand by you always,
If you were mine, that would set my life in order,
And I know we would make it you would see,
If you were mine,
Repeat Chorus
