I'd go working in daytime   Instead of staying out all night   And if I felt bad and sick   I'd pretend I'm alright      Every day I'd bring you flowers   I'd go walking your dog   I would do it all right this time      I wouldn't mind doing the dishes   I would not let you wait   Would play your favourite records   And pretend they're just great      And if you like I'd sell my car   And ride a bike instead   I would do it all right this time      And I swear I'd still be right here in twenty-five years from now   And I'd mean it when I say I love you, and I'd let it show   Each day I'm alive I would only live to make you feel fine   All that and more I would do   If you were still mine...      I'd join you on those parties   And pretend I have fun   I'd see the bright side of things   Even if there is none      And I would swallow all my fear   To not make you concerned   I would do it all right this time      And when you're lying to yourself   I'd notice but wouldn't tell   Whenever you're fooling yourself   I'd let you fool me as well      So if my eyes were your mirror   I'd swear you'd like what you see   I would do it all right this time      And I swear I'd still be right here in twenty-five years from now   And I'd mean it when I say I love you, and I'd let it show   Each day I'm alive I would only live to make you feel fine   All that and more I would do   If you were still mine...
