If I Could Lyrics

You have a heaven in your eyes that I've been looking for
The fire that's in the sun is in our hearts
And with a stick I write your name on the shifting shore
And then you write mine next to yours

And if I could I would write your name
On every grain of sand on every shore

We slept our sleepless nights alone
Wondering what it's all for
And so we found each other here
Still we lie awake at night
And we talk about the things that we would
Only talk about behind closed doors.

And if I could I would lie awake with you every night
And all night evermore

And if I could I would write your name
On every grain of sand on every shore

We don't have any money
We've never had any money before
All truths told we're downright poor
Still we go window shopping
On Saturdays we hit the stores
Some eat the apple we eat the core

But if I could I would buy for you every diamond
In every jeweler store

And if I could I would lie awake with you every night
And all night evermore

And if I could I would write your name
On every grain of sand on every shore

Yes if I could I would write your name
On every grain of sand on every shore

If I could I would write your name
On every grain of sand on every shore

If I could I would write your name
On every grain of sand on every shore

If I could I would write your name
On every grain of sand on every shore
