I Would If I Could - Hurrah!

作词：Paul Handyside

作曲：Paul Handyside

Everybody's saying

When you gonna pick up your life

Everybody's asking

Isn't it about time you took yourself a wife

You're such a lucky kid

Such a lucky kid

You had everything you wanted to take

Sun and moon and the stars that shine for you

Now you're spitting on you lucky breaks

That's the way it's been

That's the way it's going

That's the way it's been

That's the way it's going

Everybody's singing

Singing my praises so high

They don't know what they're saying

What they're saying

They think my rivers can never run dry

It's not the way I planned it

Like you can't grow flowers from every plant

Though I'd love to set this world on fire

Well I would if I could but I can't

That's the way it's been

That's the way it's going

That's the way it's been

That's the way it's going

Great expectations from me an my mouth

Well you sure know by nowto decide

Looking through you like a dog looks to a man

But in a bad sense sometimes

Will they understand

Will they understand

Everybody's thinking

Everybody's thinking the same

Why can't I move up closer

Little closer up to my aim

Same thing stopping me

Is the same thing stopping everybody else

You friend were fools

With good intentions

About timing and a lack of good health

Say you're seventeen

Say you're seventeen

And you've got no sense

Well if you ask me

That's best way that you could be

Like you're innocent

But yet you're the best

That's the way it's been

That's the way it's going

That's the way it's been

That's the way it's going

That's the way it's been

That's the way it's going

That's the way it's been

That's the way it's going

Gone gone gone

Well you had the game

But then you wanted more

And now you have more pain

Than what you're asking for

You've been thinking too fast

And you've been moving too slow

And that's the way

Your chances go
