You Were

If you were:

The ground beneath my feet

I'd find a way to float

Or just walk so gently.

If you were:

A star in the night sky

I'd figure out how to fly

Or just walk with my head high.

They pushed me around

But they haven't knocked me down.

Flowers die, so I'll plant a pot inside.

Babies grow, and buy their own homes,

To fill with families of their own

If you were:

The clouds that bring the shadows,

The dark won't make me sad

Though I'd miss you.

I'll make

Shadow puppets and I'll laugh

Because I know you'd love it

And I'll cry a little too.

If I were God,

I'd destroy all religion,

Abolish all divisions,

And leave the world with love.

And I'd probably take you

Up with me,

Because we're selfish

Here above.

Yeah, they pushed me around

But they haven't knocked me down.

Flowers die, so I'll plant a pot inside

Babies grow, and buy their own homes,

To fill with families of their own.

We've lost a lot

But we've got much more.

If you need comfort

That's what we're here for.

And if the ground shall crumble

And the stars shall fall

I will hold your hand

And we'll both stand tall.

They pushed me around

But they haven't knocked me down.

Flowers die, so I'll plant a pot inside.

Babies grow, and buy their own homes,

To fill with families of their own.

I'm not so scared

I'm not so scared

I'm not so scared

I'm not so scared
