If I Tell You I Love You

If I Tell You I Love You - Melody Gardot Lyrics

There are so many things I could say, my love make you trip so your lips would be mineThere are so many things I could do, my loveto convince you my love is divineThere are so many words I could tell youThere are so many moments in timeBut I say 'fore we go to the land down belowIf I tell you I love you -- I'm lyingThere are so many places to go, my loveThere are so many places to findThere are so many worlds to explore, my loveThere are so many stars yet to shineThere are so many secrets to tell youThere are so many men on the lineBut I say 'fore we go to the land down belowIf I tell you "I love you" -- I'm lyingI may be show to reason (?)to call you up next timeSo if you like your women sweet --consider me your wine-ad lib-(?)To call you when you're flyin'But if I ever utter "I love you"--Honey, I am mineAnd if I look into your eyes and tell you--"Honey, I am blind"If I ever whisper words unheard, so sensuous"Je t'aime, ah oui, je t'aime"
