Текст песни If I Loved You (From Carousel) - Gordon MacRae

If I loved you
Time and again I would try to say
All I'd want you to know
If I loved you
Words wouldn't come in an easy way
'Round in circles I'd go
Longin' to tell you
But afraid I'm shy
I'd let my golden chances pass me by
Soon you'd leave me
Off you would go in the mist of day
Never, never to know
How I loved you
If I loved you

You can't hear a sound, not the turn of a leaf
Nor the fall of a wave hittin' the sand
The tide's creepin' up on the beach like a thief
Afraid to be caught stealin' the land
But on a night like this I start to wonder
What life is all about

And I always say two heads are better than one
To figure it out

I don't need you or anyone to help me. Got it figured out for myself
What are we? Just a couple of specks of nothin'. Look up there

Why, you can't even count the stars in the sky
And the sky's so big, the sea looks small
And two little people, you and I
We don't count at all

Hmph, I can just see myself, kinda scrawny and pale

Pickin' at my food and lovesick like any other guy
I'd throw away my sweater and dress up like a dude
In a dickey and a collar and a tie
If I loved you
But somehow I can't see
Just exactly how I'd be
If I loved you
Time and again I would try to say
All I'd want you to know
If I loved you
Words wouldn't come in an easy way
'Round in circles I'd go
Longin' to tell you
But afraid I'm shy
I'd let my golden chances pass me by
Soon you'd leave me
Off you would go in the mist of day
Never, never to know
How I loved you
If I loved you
