Katie Melua - If You Were A Sailboat

IF YOU WERE A SAILBOAT (LYRICS)

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 sailboat I would sail you to the shore
If you were a river I would swim you
If you were a preacher I'd begin to change my ways.
If you were a house I'd live in you all my days.

Sometimes I believe in fate
But the chances we create
Always seem to ring more true
You took a chance on loving me
I took a chance on loving you.

If I was in jail I know you'd spring me,
If I was a telephone you'd ring me all day long
If I was in pain I know you'd sing me soothing songs.

If I was homeless 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.

Sometimes I believe in fate
But the chances we create
Always seem to ring more true
You took a chance on loving me
I took a chance on loving you.

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 sailboat I would sail you to the shore
