If There Were Time

if there were time oh i would buy you a ribbon of rain and a silver tongued nightingale to sing out your name if there were time oh i would fly you across the room then i'd carry you back again through the afternoon if there were time wouldn't we have a time and wouldn't we set the stars to dancing with our heartbeats keeping time if there were time oh i would wake you when the snowfall comes then we'd watch those flakes dissolve again beneath the winter sun but time is a messenger that comes and goes so fast and while thinking up the good times all our good times have pa*sed
