If I Were

Stephen Lawrence, David Axlerod

If I were a poet, I would write a sonnet
It would say I love you, your name would be on it
If I were a farmer, I'd give you a bunny
If I had a beehive, you would get free honey

Fa la la, la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
Fa la la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la

If I were a baker, you could have a cruller
If I were a painter, choose your favorite color
If I had some diamonds, I’d give you a few
Anything to show you how much I love you

Fa la la, la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
Fa la la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la

Did you guess my secret? I am not a poet
Couldn't write a sonnet, and I think you know it
I am not a farmer, can't give you a bunny
I don’t have a beehive, sorry 'bout the honey

Fa la la, la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
Fa la la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la

I am not a baker, don't know bread from batter
And I'm not a painter, and it doesn't matter
I don't a present, all I have to do
Is look at you to show you how much I love you

Fa la la, la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
Fa la la, la la la, la la, la la la la la
