Water of Life

If love were whiskey, would you give me a sip?    
Give me a sip 
Give me a sip
If love were whiskey, would you give me a sip?
And let me drink it straight from your lips


If whiskey were love, would you give me a kiss?
Give me a kiss
Give me a kiss
If whiskey were love, would you give me a kiss?
And say to me here, you drink it like this


If time were a waltz, could I have the next dance?
Have the next dance
Have the next dance
If time were a waltz, could I have the next dance?
And if I prove graceless, just one more chance


If faith were a bed, could I sleep here tonight?
Sleep here tonight
Sleep here tonight
If faith were a bed, could I sleep here tonight?
And dream with you in the pale moonlight


If hope were a blanket, would you cover me?
Cover me
Cover me
If hope were a blanket, would you cover me?
Brush my hair from my eyes, whisper softly


If I were a mirror, would you look into my eyes?
Look into my eyes
Look into my eyes
If I were a mirror, would you look into my eyes?
And let me show you all the beauty I recognize


If the heart were a guitar, would you play the strings?
Play the strings
Play the strings
If the heart were a guitar, would you play the strings?
Let your hair hang down while the lonesome chords ring


If we were a river, would we roll to the sea?
Roll to the sea
Roll to the sea
If we were a river, would we roll to the sea?
Wash into each other and then still waters be


If the morning weren't tomorrow, would it be so long?
Be so long
Be so long
If the morning weren't tomorrow, would it be so long?
Since we searched for each other, but we'd already gone


If love were a road, would you wait at the gate?
Wait at the gate
Wait at the gate
If love were a road, would you wait at the gate?
And hang out a lantern when it gets late
