Katie Melua - If You Were a Sailboat lyrics

If you're a cowboy I would trail you
If you're a piece of wood I'd
Nail you to the floor
If you're a sailboat I would
Sail you to the shore
If you're a river I would swim you
If you're a house I would live
In you all my days
If you're a preacher I'd begin
To change my ways

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 was in pain I know
You'd sing me soothing songs

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 hungry 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

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 a sailboat I would
Sail you to the shore
If you were a sailboat I would
Sail you to the shore
