If You Were Mine — текст песни (Level 42)

I been waiting here for so long

Counting all the holes in my shoes

Youve been singing such a different song

I aint gonna punch you in the eye

Just cause you tell a crazy lie



Even so . . .

I knew how you would go . . .

Im always the last to know youre trying to love me too



Youve been wasting so much time away

Never seem to get through to you

Youve been lazy now its time to pay

Whos gonna be the one to say whos gonna make the move today



I wont stand by . . .

Asking you questions why . . .

Not while you say youre too shy to look me in the eye . . .



If you were mine

Id never need to wipe the smile from my face

It aint no crime

What wed achieve if we stayed in this place



You said once I had a hold on you

And I believed you first time around

But now you dont know what youre trying to do

So when you turn around and realise

Im not around to dry your eyes



Then youll know . . .

Its crazy to let me go . . .

Youre always the last to know

Im trying to love you too . . .



If you were mine

Id never need to wipe the smile from my face

It aint no crime

What wed achieve if we stayed in this place



If you kept your promise baby

Everything would stay the same

But I cant shake the feeling youre searching maybe

For another love to blame



If you were mine

Id never need to wipe the smile from my face

It aint no crime

What wed achieve if we stayed in this place
