Four Letter Word

If the world was in my hipsack
And the stars were in my eyes
The universe was not adversed
To reaching for the skies
If only you were with me
I'd be singing like a bird
And if would be a four letter word

If would be a four letter word
It'd be the sweetest thing I ever heard
Tell me I'm not crazy
Totally absurd
And if would be a four letter word

If I could do without you
If I could walk away
If I could keep my mouth closed
Have nothing more to say
If I could shut my ears
Forget everything I heard
Then if would be a four letter word

If would be a four letter word
It'd be the sweetest thing I ever heard
Tell me I'm not crazy
Totally absurd
And if would be a four letter word

If we had the time
And the space to go around
If I was steady all the time
Instead of town to town
If you were never in my dreams
If I was more assured
Then if would be a four letter word

If would be a four letter word… (etc.)
