If I Were A Joiner Lyrics
Why did you leave me?
What did I do?
Toured around Europe
Then cheated on you
Now I'm at the piano
With a paper and pen
But alliteration alone won't bring you back to me again
Oh but
I'm only a singer
It's all I can do
I'm singing a song, a song about you
As though you would listen
As though you'd be swayed
As though you'd fall in love again over something I made
But I'm pouring my heart out all over the page
Because you've got to do something in this world
To run away
Yeah but
If I were a joiner
You know what I'd do
(What would I do?)
I'd put up a shelf
A shelf all about you
Yeah all about you
All about you
I know you know that I miss you
I know you know that I cried
I know a clever made alate?
Won't hide the fact that I've lied
Being around you
Is so very hard
You're like one more establishment
From which I've been barred
And if I were the landlord
What would I do?
(What would I do?)
I'd open a bar
A bar about you
If I were a joiner
You know what I'd do
(What would I do?)
I'd put up a shelf
A shelf about you
All about you
Yes all about you
All about you
All about you
What did I do?
Toured around Europe
Then cheated on you
With a paper and pen
But alliteration alone won't bring you back to me again
Oh but
I'm only a singer
It's all I can do
I'm singing a song, a song about you
As though you would listen
As though you'd be swayed
As though you'd fall in love again over something I made
But I'm pouring my heart out all over the page
Because you've got to do something in this world
To run away
Yeah but
If I were a joiner
You know what I'd do
(What would I do?)
I'd put up a shelf
A shelf all about you
Yeah all about you
I know you know that I cried
I know a clever made alate?
Won't hide the fact that I've lied
Being around you
Is so very hard
You're like one more establishment
From which I've been barred
And if I were the landlord
What would I do?
(What would I do?)
I'd open a bar
A bar about you
If I were a joiner
You know what I'd do
(What would I do?)
I'd put up a shelf
A shelf about you
All about you
Yes all about you
All about you
All about you
