What If

You caught me staring
Into your eyes
You caught me smiling
Telling myself lies

How could he like me?
How could he want me?
Maybe he’s going a little blind

But then you talked to me
And then you teased me
You and your sarcasm
I didn’t mind

What if I needed you
What if I kissed you
What if I held you every night

What if I hugged you
What if I loved you
What if I told you all the time

We talked for hours
Sat and made paper flowers
You called me looser
But then how’d I win you?

A connection beyond your stare
A love you can’t compare
Baby I want you over here
Every day of the year

Take me to a Giants game
Take me far away
I don’t care where
As long as you’re there

Because what if I needed you
What if I kissed you
What if I held you every night

What if I hugged you
What if I loved you
What if I told you all the time

Hey there ducky
Ill be your chaybear
Hey there lovely
Ill be your savior

Cause you’ve never met a girl quite like me
Maybe that’s just what you need
Six twenty one thirteen
The way things are meant to be

If I could
I’d only wanna see you smile
I wanna see beneath your beautiful
Beneath your perfect

What if you needed me
What if you kissed me
What if you held me every night

What if you hugged me
What if you loved me
What if you told me all the time

Would do that?
Because you’re mine
