Katie Melua

If You were a Sailboat

If you were a cowboy I would trail you
If you were a piece of wood I'll nail you - to the floor
If you were a sailboat I will sail you to the shore

If you were a river I would swim you
If you were a house I would live in you - all my days
If you were a preacher I would begin the change my ways

Sometimes I believe in fate
but the chances we create
always seems remote true
You took a chance on loving
I took a chance on loving you

If I was in jail I know you'd free me
If I was a telephone you would ring me - all day long
If I was in pain I know you will sing me soothing songs

Sometimes I believe in fate
but the chances we create
always seems remote true
You took a chance on loving
I took a chance on loving you

If I was hungry you would feed me
If I was in darkness you would lead me - to the light
If I was a book I know you'd read me every night

If you were a cowboy I would trail you
If you were a piece of wood I'd nail you - to the floor
If you were a sailboat I will sail you to the shore

If you were a sailboat I will sail you to the shore............................
