If You Were a Sailboat 如果你是一艘帆船

*If you were a cowboy, I would trail you
If you were a piece of wood, I d nail you to the floor
If you were a sailboat, I would sail you to the shore*
If you were a river, I would swim you
If you were a house, I would live in you all my days
If you were a preacher, I d begin to change my 1)ways
**Sometimes I believe in fate
But the chances we create
Always seem to 2)ring more true
You took a chance on loving me
I took a chance on loving you**
If I was in jail, I know you d 3)spring me
If I was a telephone, you d ring me all day long
If was in pain, I know you d sing me soothing songs
Repeat **
If I was hungry, you would feed me
If I was in darkness, you would lead me to the light
If I was a book, I know you’d read me every night
Repeat *
