gordon lightfoot - if i could lyrics
if i could sing like the poets and kings of this world
if i could rise like the wind or the tides of the sea
i would sing you to sleep my love with sweet melody
and let you dream away till the morning light returned again
to take you away from me
if i could speak with the tongues of the masters of old
if i could tame all the fleeting perceptions i hold
would i stand in the marketplace before
to be shouted down without any warning at all, to be stood by the wall
and shot by the man in blue
if i could run with the grace of a sun-colored stallion
if i could fly like the great silver jets in the morning
if i caused the wind to change with one wave of my hand
and if i could play the final symphony and set it free
would it mean anything to you
if i could stand like a rusty old man in his armor
if i could ride the steed that he rode in his time
i would turn his head away to the river
and let him wander through the meadow gr-ss, wild and free
for everyone to see
if i could sing like the poets and kings of this world
if i could rise like the wind or the tides of the sea
i would sing you to sleep my love with sweet melody
and let you dream away till the morning light returned again
to take you away from me
