lyrics

I’d build us a house
I’d clean every day
I’d eat like a mouse
I’d put things away

I’d be there for you
Cause that’s what we’d do
And things won’t go wrong
This time

If I lived
If I lived life again
If I lived
If I lived life again
With you
Ooh Ooh Ooh

In the dark of a storm
Our feet they would touch
And you’d feel so strong
And I’d love you so much

But now I’ve got old
And time it don’t wait
I’m wounded and I’m worn
And I know it’s too late

But If I lived
If I lived life again
But If I lived
If I lived life again

I’d keep you safe
I’d keep you close
I wouldn’t fail
This time
And we would dance
There’d be joy in our house
I’d make you proud
Of me

If I lived
If I lived life again
If I lived
If I lived life again
With you

If I lived
If I lived life again
If I lived
If I lived life again
With you
