If You Were Mine

So here I am, I sweep the floors
shut off the lights and lock the doors
I try to tell you everything
feels good to know you're listening

I would be there forever if I could
I would hold on for bad or for good
I would be there as close as your soul
I would be there forever and ever

For you, for me, forgive, I need, within, without
too high, to count, to see, for you, for me, forever

And if you were mine
I'd be the bridge for your soul
And if you were mine
We could tell the world forever good-bye

I don't have much to say
but it takes a long time to get it out
I feel like I'm not being honest
if I don't ask you sometimes what you're talkin' about

Just like everybody I'm cold in the winter
and I sit still and I wait for the dawn
I sometimes crawl around under my conscience
and I wonder where it's all coming
and everybody wants to be somebody
Well I just want to it make through this song
and wonder what it's like to know where you're going
and then I wonder what planet I'm on
And I just laugh when I'm happy
and I just cry when I'm sad
and I feel the weight of prejudice
and I wonder what's so free about this land
And I just hold on
