If I Could

Someone’s name is on your lips
I know that it’s not mine
What does it mean when your tongue trips
Even after all this time
Still, you ask me how I feel
Then you look at me that way
With eyes that wonder if my love is real
What do you want me to say

Could I love you
You know I could, if I had the chance
Would I want to
You know I would, if you’d love me back
There’s no doubt in my heart or mind
Of the way I feel with you tonight
I don’t want to be misunderstood
I would love you if I could

I’ve been pacing the floor today
Wondering where this all leads
What kind of price will I have to pay
To become your only need
My mind keeps saying I should go
You’re just gonna bring me down
But my heart still wants you so
Oh, I’m spinning ’round and ’round

Could I love you
You know I could, if I had the chance
Would I want to
You know I would, if you’d love me back
There’s no doubt in my heart or mind
Of the way I feel with you tonight
I don’t want to be misunderstood
I would love you if I could

You’re right there
I’m right here
Looking in each others eyes
But someone else lies in between
You and me and paradise

Could I love you
You know I could, if I had the chance
Would I want to
You know I would, if you’d love me back
There’s no doubt in my heart or mind
Of the way I feel with you tonight
I don’t want to be misunderstood
I would love you if I could

No, I don’t want to be misunderstood
I would love you if I could
