fortune teller 2

if i were a beggar
i could go down on my knees
without you thinking that
i've fallen for you
and i'm praying for
just a moment or two

and if i were a dancer
i'll trace your name with my toes
across the stage in every theater
so you'll never miss a show

and if i were a soldier
i'd be at the front of the line
so i can come home with a purple heart
and just be closer to you

and if i could
i wouldn't be another
silly boy you don't remember
and if i could
i would make the world a better place
so it can never take the smile from your face

if i were a postman
i'd put a smile on every letter
but i'll stick a stamp right over
so you won't know any better

if i were a seamstress
i would sew my little heart
into the corner of your pocket
so we'll never be apart

and if i had a boat
i'd sail to the end of the world
and return with a pot of gold
and hide it in your purse so
you'd see a rainbow
every where you go

and if i were a fortune teller
and my crystal ball could give me answers
it'll know that i would never ever fall
in love with any girl but you

and if i could
i wouldn't be another
silly boy you don't remember
and if i could
i would make the world a better place
so it can never take the smile from your face
