If I Could Lyrics – Peter Hammill

If I Could Lyrics by Peter Hammill

Oh, you must be crazy to stay here
And i’ll be crazy when you go;
Though there’s so much i want to tell you
All the words come out too slow

I’ve been locked in my problems
You seemed prepared to wait…
Now that i know i’m going to lose you
All the words come out too late

There’s no promise i can give you
That you wouldn’t know was fake;
Though i just want to be with you
There’s no show that i can make

And in the morning, when i wake and find you dressing
I can see that it’s on your mind to go for good;
And i know that all this time i’ve kept you guessing
But i’d tell you if i could

That’s just no good, that’s just no…
But if i now said that i loved you
Oh, how would that seem in your eyes?
Oh, may my voice fall into silеnce

If my words turn out to be lies
You know that i nеver meant to hurt you
Even though i’m… that’s what i do –
Even though you might not believe this

All my words were meant for you
There’s no promise i can give you
That you wouldn’t know was fake;
Though i just want to be with you

There’s no show that i can make
And in the evening, when we sit and watch the tv
Oh, i know that all this silence just won’t do me any good
And i want to beg you, beg you, beg you to believe me…

That i’d tell you if i could
I’d tell you if i could
I’d tell you if i could
