If I were a singer I'd sing you a song,

A song that would live in your heart forever;

I'd sing it loud and strong,

Every single word,

So that when my life is over,

And I never see you again,

The singer may die but the song will remain.

For all I have is gold and silver,

And such things so easy to find,

And that's all I have to leave you,

When I leave you behind.

But if I were a singer I'd sing you a song,

A song that would live in your heart forever;

I'd sing it loud and strong,

Every single word,

So that when my life is over,

And I never see you again,

The singer may die but the song will remain.
