If there could be a song It wouldn't have to be very long But it'd make up for what I did And help me live with it If there could be a song It'd be all about how I was wrong It could numb some of the pain That always seems to remain If there could be a song Maybe you would hum along It'd be a lovely thing If it got you to sing But if it's not enough When you're looking down instead of up Near the end the song would say My love won't go away I will be here holding on If there could be a song It wouldn't have to be very long But it'd make up for what I did And help me live with it
