If I Were

If I were a river
I'd flow into your heart
And if I were a lovesong
You'd be the only one

And if I were the wintersnow
Falling gently all in vain
I'd wish you were the deep dark earth
To swallow me again

And if I were a rosebud
For you I'd open wide
And if you were the ocean's wall
You know I'd be the ocean's tide

And if you were the only star
Lost in a summer storm
I'd be the sky all through the night
To keep your starlight warm

And if you were the ocean's sound
I'd be the ocean's song
And if I'd opened up my heart
Would you keep me from the storm

And if I were a river
I'd flow into your heart
And if you'd be the ocean
They can't keep us apart
