If I Could

If I were you I'd turn this thing around before it runs aground But I know you And there's nothing that could ever slow you down I closed my eyes Hoping it would all work out in time But here we are And there's nothing I can do to change your mind 'Cause if I could, you know I would If I could, you know I would If I could, you know I would, yeah, whoa I circled once Then twice before I finally found the words The sweetest sound But nothing that you ain't already heard I always knew The day would come your ship would run aground But I know you And there's nothing you would do to slow it down I wish I could slow you down 'Cause if I could, you know I would If I could, you know I would If I could, you know I would, yeah, whoa I should've known my chance was gone The way you laughed when first we kissed Another round and I'd have won But as it was, it never came Your body spoke a thousand truths Another shade into my soul I'm on my knees and begging now What would it take? No, no Down on my knees, ah 'Cause if I could, you know I would If I could, you know I would If I could, you know I would, yeah, oh 'Cause if I could, you know I would If I could, you know I would If I could, you know I would, yeah, whoa Oh If I were you I'd turn this thing around before it runs aground
