Lyrics of If by Dolly Parton

verse

If a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show
The you I've come to know

verse

If a face could launch a thousand ships
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you
You're all that's left me too

verse

And when my love for life is running dry
You come and pour yourself on me
If I could be two places at one time
I'd be with you

verse

Tomorrow and today
Beside you all the way
If the world should stop revolving
Spinning slowly down to die

verse

I'd spend the end with you
And when the world was through
Then one by one, the stars would all go out
Then you and I would simply fly awa-ay

verse

(Oh-oh, uh-oh-uh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)

verse

If a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can't I paint you?
'Cause the words could never show
The you I've come to know

outro

And one by one the stars will all go out
But you and I will simply fly away
We'll fly away
Writer(s): David Gates
