If I Was

If I was a poet

I'd know what to say

If I were an actor

I'd act the right way

But when you walk by

I just go up on my lines

If I were a painter

Repainting the world

Then you'd get the picture

And I'd get the girl

But whatever I do

I draw a blank when it comes to you

Trying to get you out of my mind

Climbing walls all day and all night

How long can I go on

Being right where you belong

If I were a singer

You'd listen to me

Yes, if I were an artist

I would be free

It's so hard to express

Lost my voice long ago, I guess

Deep down I know I'm on track

But I've been holding back

I'm dying to make my move

Don't you know how much I want you?

But whatever I do

I draw a blank when it comes to you

If I was a poet

I'd know what to say

If I were an actor

I'd act the right way

But when you walk by

I just go up on my lines

Na na ra na na ra

Na na ra na na

Na na ra na na ah
