If I loved you
Time and again I would try to say
All I'd want you to know!

If I loved you
Words wouldn't come in an easy way
'Round in circles I'd go!

Longing to tell you
But afraid an' shy
I'd let my golden chances pass me by!

Soon you'd leave me
Off you would go in the mist of day
Never, never to know
How I love you
If I loved you!

Soon you'd leave me
Off you would go in the mist of day
Never, never to know
How I love you
If I loved you!
