If I Was testo

Midge Ure

Testo

If I was a better man
Would fellow men take me to their hearts
If I was a stronger man
Carrying the weight of a popular demand
Tell me would that alarm her
I´d never harm her at all
If I was a soldier
Captive arms I´d lay before her
If I was a sailor
Seven oceans I´d sail to her
If I was a wiser man
Would other men reach out and touch me
If I was a kinder man
Dishing up love for a hungry world
Tell me would that appease her
I want to please her again
If I was a painter
I´d paint a world that couldn´t taint her
If I was a leader
On food of love from above I would feed her
If I Was a poet
All my love and burning words I would show it
If I was her lover
Her eyes in kisses I would cover
Come here my baby
Oh they can´t touch you now
I´ll keep you save and warm
I´ll never leave you at all
Come here my baby
Oh they won´t touch you
Dishing up love for a hungry world
Tell me would that appease you
I want to please you again
If I was a soldier
Captive arms I´d lay before her
If I was a sailor
Seven oceans I´d sail to her
If I was a painter
I´d paint a world that couln´t taint her
If I was a leader
On food of love from above I would feed her
If I was a poet
All my love and burning words I would show it
