If I Could - David Essex

If I could, love you forever

If I could love you everyday

If I could take your hand

Would ya understand

And let, me, show, the, way

If we could dance this dance forever

If we could laugh without the world

If I give you my life

Will you be my wife

Or is that too absurd

But oh we could have a lark, a lark

Picnicking in the park, the park

On Saturday night if you feel alright

We’ll go to the pictures when its dark

If I were a, plumber, would you love me

If you were a waitress, I’d love you

Could you picture us

On a number nine bus

To Canning Town we two

Just me and you

But oh we could have a lark, a lark

Picnicking, in the park, the park

On Saturday night if you feel alright

We’ll go to the pictures when its dark

Yes we could, walk our walks together

Or we could raise a family

When I come home from work

I’ll change me shirt

And sit by the fireside for tea

Just you and me
