If I Could Lyrics
If I could paint
I'd paint a portrait of you
The sunlight in your eyes a masterpiece of truth
And a single tear like a silent prayer
That's shining so much brighter than a diamond ever dared
If I could do anything at all, I'd do it for you
If I could write
I'd write a book for you
A tale of hidden treasures with an I.O.U
And a million words couldn't say a thing
That won't be said in three words
Where love's the central theme
If I could do anything at all, I'd do it for you
Darling can't you see
What you mean to me
Anything that I can do I'll do it for you
And darling don't you know
Just how far I'd go
Anything that I can do, I'd do it for you
Sometimes I feel so second-rate
Seems loving you was my greatest mistake
I know I'm insecure
And love don't keep score
But I wish I could give you more
If I could play
I'd play up a storm for you
A raging sea of passion that you never knew
Every whispered sound would touch your heart
And maybe for a moment I could be your favourite star
If I could do anything at all
If I could, I'd give you more
If I could do anything at all, I'd do it for you
And darling can't you see
You mean the world to me
Anything that I can do I'll do it for you
And darling don't you know
Just how far I'd go
Anything that I can do I'll do it, I'll do it for you.
I'd paint a portrait of you
The sunlight in your eyes a masterpiece of truth
And a single tear like a silent prayer
That's shining so much brighter than a diamond ever dared
If I could do anything at all, I'd do it for you
I'd write a book for you
A tale of hidden treasures with an I.O.U
And a million words couldn't say a thing
That won't be said in three words
Where love's the central theme
If I could do anything at all, I'd do it for you
What you mean to me
Anything that I can do I'll do it for you
And darling don't you know
Just how far I'd go
Anything that I can do, I'd do it for you
Seems loving you was my greatest mistake
I know I'm insecure
And love don't keep score
But I wish I could give you more
I'd play up a storm for you
A raging sea of passion that you never knew
Every whispered sound would touch your heart
And maybe for a moment I could be your favourite star
If I could do anything at all
If I could, I'd give you more
If I could do anything at all, I'd do it for you
You mean the world to me
Anything that I can do I'll do it for you
And darling don't you know
Just how far I'd go
Anything that I can do I'll do it, I'll do it for you.

It's a wonderful song. Means alot to me because there's one girl who I think of every time I hear this song. I'm shocked there's no other comments...

I agree O RLY. This song is one of my favourite songs of all time. It's very poetic like a love song should be.Awesome.
" Sometimes I feel so second-rate Seems loving you was my greatest mistake "
Best lines of this song!
@iloverock18 it certainly puts Shakespeare in his place

the first band i ever went to to see live. I think that it has a fantastic bridge that should have been repeated more
Simple meaning, really, but a good one.
Basically highlighting that a girl he either wants to be with or is currently with, and he's professing his love for her and the lengths he'll go to in order to show her just how much she loves her.
Or vice versa, whichever.
Great song, though.
