If I Loved You

Say, tell me somethin' Hm? Ain't ya scared of me? I ain't scared Hey your name, Julie, Julie somethin' Julie Jordan You're a queer one, Julie Jordan Ain't ya sorry that you didn't run away? You can still go if you wanna I reckon that I care to choose to stay You couldn't take my money if I didn't have any And I don't have a penny, that's true And if I did have money, you couldn't take any 'Cause you'd ask and I'd give it to you You're a queer one, Julie Jordan Ain't ya ever had a fella you give money to? No Ain't ya ever had a fella at all? No Well ya must've had a fella you went walkin' with Yes Where'd you walk? Nowhere special I recall In the woods (No) On the beach (No) Did you love him No, never loved no one, I told you that I'm never gonna marry, if I was gonna marry I wouldn't have to be such a stickler But I'm never gonna marry, and a girl who don't marry's got to be much more particular Suppose I was to say to you that I'd marry you You wouldn't marry anyone like me, would you? Yes I would, if I loved you It wouldn't make any difference what you- Even if I died for it How do you know what you'd do if you loved me How you'd feel or anything? I don't know how I know Huh Tis the same, I know how I, how it'd be if I loved you When I worked in the mill, weaving at the loof I'd gaze absentminded at the roof And half the time the shuttle would tangle in the threads And the walk would get mixed with the woof If I loved you But you don't No I don't But somehow I can 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 Longing to tell you but afraid and 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 I can smell 'em, can you? The blossoms, their wind brings them down Ain't much wind tonight Hm? Hardly any You can't hear a sound, not the turn of a leaf Nor the fall of a wave hitting the sand The tides creeping up on the beach like a thief Afraid to be caught stealing the land 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 I've got to figure it out for myself We ain't important, what are we? A couple of specks of nothing Look up there There's a hell of a lot of 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 You're different alright, don't know what it is You look up at me with that little kid face like you Like you trusted me I wonder what it'd be like What? Nothing, I know what it'd be like It'll be awful, I can just see myself Kinda scrawny and frail and picking 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 you don't No, I don't But somehow I can 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 Longing to tell you but afraid and 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 I'm not a fella to marry anybody Even if a girl was foolish enough to want me to I wouldn't Don't worry about it, Billy Who's worried? You're right, about there being no wind Blossoms are just coming down by themselves Just their time to, I reckon
