If I Had to Write a Song About You

I wish you'd write a song about me

(Would you like that, really?)

(Well, we ought to be able to whip somethin' up, here)

If I had to write a song about you

I'd write about your smile (Write about it)

And how it drives me wild

If I had to write a song about you

I'd write a melody

For the world to sing (For the world to sing)

If I had to write a song about you

I would take my time

And polish every rhyme

If I had to write a song about you

I'd write about your kiss (I would write about it)

It'd probably sound like this (Ay)

If I had to write a song about you

I'd write about your heart

And all the things you are

If I had to write a song about you

I'd write a song that's real

And something you could feel

When I've said all that there is to say

When I've played all that there is to play

My heart goes searching for a melody

And I think that I found it, think that I found it, babe

Like the bird that sings its melody

Give a show so sweet

If I had to write a song about you

I can tell you this

It'd probably sound like this

If I had to write a song about you (If I had to write about)

I'd write about your smile

And how it drives me wild

If I had to write a song about you (If I)

I'd write a melody (I'd write a melody)

For the world to sing

If I had to write a song about you

I would take my time (I would take my time)

And polish every rhyme (I would do it right)

(I would weave the pen, move it or I'll surrend)

If I had to write a song about you

I'd write about your kiss (I would write about you)

I'd probably sound like this (I would sing about you)

(Tell the world about you, hey)

If I had to write a song about you

I can tell you this (I can tell you this)

It'd probably sound like this
