If I Were Lyrics
Nothing More
Lyrics
Just tell me, tell me how to keep this
And I'll be alright
Just tell me, tell me what's the secret
And I'll hold it tight
Because I don't want to spend another moment without you again
Just tell me, tell me how to keep this so it never ends
If I were God, just for a day
I would be guilty of letting the whole world slip away
I wouldn't change, no, I wouldn't change a thing
I'd leave the mistakes
I'll take the blame
And I'll use the chance to keep you just the same
If I were, if I were God just for a day
Don't tell me, tell me how it changes
It's you I can't replace
Don't tell me, tell me that we're hopeless
I can learn from my mistakes
Because I don't want to spend another moment without you again
