Jake Epstein - I would lyrics

rate me

I wish that i could right the perfect letters,

on the perfect postcard with a perfect stamp.

The perfect words to make everything better

And have a perfect dove deliver it to your hands.

I wish that I could buy you all the things that you deserve,

And whisper in your ear, my love, in tongues you've never heard,

I'd show you all the things your eyes had never dreamed to see

And hold you in my arms as the sun is swallowed by the sea

And I would,

Cause I know,

Nothing's wasted on you,

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

And I know,

I would,

Just to put a smile on your lips,

And just to kiss your fingertips,

I would.

I wish that I could be there every moment,

Every second, minute, hour, of every day.

I would be if i just didn't know better,

I think you know exactly what I'm trying to say.

I wish that I could found a new religion on your name.

I'd make a daily sacrifice but worship all the same.

I wish that I could realign the stars to match your face,

So i could gaze into your eyes every night, any place.

And I would,

Cause I know,

Nothing's wasted on you,

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

And I know,

I would,

Just to put a smile on your lips,

And just to kiss your fingertips,

I would.

If I were a famous sculptor,

A regular Michael Angelo,

I can't think of anything better,

Then to carve you in marble,

Pure as snow.

And if I was a famous writer,

and I wrote the perfect love story,

It'd be no fiction baby,

It'd be the tale of you and me.

I wish that I could tell you how i'm feeling.

But I don't think that I should say those things right here.

I wish that every moment wasn't fleeting,

But with just one wish, I wish that you were near.

And I would,

Cause I know,

Nothing's wasted on you,

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

And I know,

I would,

Just to put a smile on your lips,

And just to kiss your fingertips,

I would.<br />
