I Would Give You the World

about

Just an old fashioned love song

lyrics

I would give you the world if it were mine to give
I would hold you in dreams that I hope to live
I'd be the light that keeps your dark at bay
I'd be the why you'd never be afraid

I have lived on the run I’ve done it for so long
I have never found the words for the perfect song
I looked for love as many people do
I know I found it when I first laid eyes on you

So meet me down by the harbour
Let me come home with you
If you like I might stay all night
And if I should be there when you wake in the morning
Would you mind if I stayed for the rest of my life?

I would give you the world if it were mine to give
