If I Were Your Woman

If you were the woman and I was the man

would I send you yellow roses

would I dare to kiss your hand?

In the morning would I caress you

as the wind caresses the sand,

if you were the woman and I was the man?

If I were the woman and you was the man

would you send me yellow roses

would you dare to kiss my hand?

In the morning would you caress me

as the wind caresses the sand,

if I were the woman and you was the man?

If I was the heart and you were the head

would you think me very foolish

if one day I decided to shed

these walls that surround me

just to see where these feelings led,

if I was the heart and you were the head?

If I was the woman and you were the man

would I laugh if you came to me

with your heart in your hand

and said,'I offer you this freely

and will give you all that I can

because you are the woman

and I am the man?'

and I am the man?'
