If

If I were the swan
I'd be gone
And if I were the train
I'd be late
And if I were the good man
I'd talk with you more often than I do

If I were to sleep
I could dream
And if I were afraid
I could hide
And if I go insane
Please don't put your wires in my brain

If I were the moon
I'd be cool
And if I were the rule
I would bend
And if I were a good man
I'd understand the spaces between friends

If I were alone
I would cry
And if I were with you
I'd be home and dry
And if I go insane
Will you still let me join in with the game?

If I were the swan
I'd be gone
And if I were the train
I'd be late again
And if I were the good man
I'd talk with you more often than I do
