If I were an aeroplane And all you had left was pocket change I would fly the whole wide world for you Like a bird takes to the skies of blue But I'm just a simple guy And I didn't wave when your train went by Because I really didn't want to believe That you were speeding away Away from me If I were a diplomat I could live wherever I put my hat And I'd build an island just for you And me Total population: 2 But I'm just an ordinary man Whose silly dreams just don't fit the plans Of a border town run by guards Between two countries and Between two hearts I thought I'd change it if I could But now I'm not so sure I ever would It's when you find That life is not a movie show And in your mind then it really smarts In all this time I thought perhaps you'd want to know just What it's like to be in love If I were a novelist I'd write a book for the best-seller lists And in it I'd never have to let you go And by the last page everyone would know That I'm just a silly boy Whose words are a little shy and a little bit coy But they're not meant for anyone but you And all that matters is you knowing it's all true I thought I'd change it if I could But now I'm not so sure I ever would So should I love and lose or just not love at all? It's up to you to try it Because up above I'd like to hope and think and know that You and I We could make it You and I We could make it You and I We could make it
