If Lyrics

David Gates(from musical group "Bread")

If  a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show
For you I've come to know.

If a face could launch a thousand ships
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you
And now you've left me too.

And when my love for life is running dry
You come and pour yourself on me

If a man could be two places at one time
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today
Beside you all the way

If the world should stop revolving
Spinning slowly down to die.
I'd spend the end with you
And when the world was through...

Then one by one, the stars would all go out.
Then you and I, would simply fly away.
