If I Love You

If I loved you

Time and again, I would try to say

All I'd want you to know



If I loved you

Words wouldn't come in an easy way

'Round in circle I'd go



Longing to tell you

But afraid an' shy

I'd let my golden chances pass me by



Soon you'd leave me

Off you would go in the mist of day

Never, never to know

How I loved you, if I loved you



Soon you'd leave me

Off you would go in the mist of day

Never, never to know

How I loved you, if I loved you
