If I Were

If I Were Lyrics

If I were a poet, I would write a sonnet
It would say, "I love you," your name would be on it
If I were a farmer, I'd give you a bunny
If I had a beehive, you would get free honey

Fa-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la

If I were a baker, you could have a cruller
If I were a painter, choose your favorite color
If I had some diamonds, I'd give you a few
Anything to show you how much I love you

Fa-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la

Did you guess my secret? I am not a poet
Couldn't write a sonnet, and I think you know it
I am not a farmer, can't give you a bunny
I don't have a beehive, sorry 'bout the honey

Fa-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la

I am not a baker, don't know bread from batter
And I'm not a painter, and it doesn't matter
I don't need a present, all I have to do
Is look at you to show you how much I love you

Fa-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la-la
