Strawbs - If



If I should live a thousand years

I would spend my whole life dying for you

If I should shed a thousand tears

I would spend my whole life crying for you



As certain as eternity

It's written in the stars

It reaches through the universe

From Jupiter to Mars

It stretches to infinity

Beyond the edge of space

Where time itself is measured

In the smile upon your face

If I should live a thousand years

I would spend my whole life loving you



If I should pick a thousand flowers

I would touch each petal for a trace of you

For every thousand April showers

I would chase the rainbow for a place with you



If I should bless a thousand brides

I would never find a-one as sweet as you

For every thousand high spring tides

There could never be one to compete with you
