If I Could - 1927



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



Chorus

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



Chorus



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'll do it, do it for you
