If I Were You lyrics
by Holy Holy
If I were you I'd buy a horse the colour of the rein
If I were you I'd find a boat and sail it far away
If I were you I'd build a house on the shores of a lake
I'd spend my winters there, alone and warm and safe
If I were you I'd be patient and I'd be wise
I'd know why the winds change and how to soothe a child
If I were you I'd be open and I'd be strong
I'd know where the birds nest and when the storms would come
If I were you I'd find a wife so honest and so sweet
I would keep nothing from her and she would trust in me
If I were you I'd raise a child with eye as true as snow
I'd live inside the fear each day, knowing she would go
If I were you I'd be patient and I'd be wise
I'd know why the winds change and how to soothe a child
If I were you I'd be open and I'd be strong
I'd know where the birds nest and when the storms would come
If I were you
