If I Said

If I said I was a painter

Would you love and comfort me

If I said I was a soldier

Would you cry a tear for me

If I said I was a poet

Would you share your hopes with me

If I said I was a dreamer

Would you share your life with me

If I asked you for forgiveness

Would you smile and wonder why

Would you say that you believed me

Or would it all fall down

Would it all fall down

Is it over?

Is it over now?

If I said I was a liar

Would you lose your faith in me

If I said I was mistaken

Would you share the blame with me

If I said I was a memory

Would you still remember me

If I said I was a warning

Would you shy away from me

If I asked you for forgiveness

Would you turn your face away

Would you say I broke your heart

And would it all fall down

Would it all fall down

Is it over?

Is it over now?

When a new tear falls

When I hear you cry softly

I would give the world

To change the past

And, when you walked away

And I saw what I was losing

And only me to blame

I wondered why, why, why

So it all comes back to haunt me

Like a song that sings your name

And it burns here to remind me

That it all comes back as pain

When I asked you for forgiveness

And the words drifted away

I watched them float in empty silence

As it all fell down

As it all fell down

It was over

It was over then
