If Lyrics - Babyface

1 written by David Gates (1971)

2 performed by Babyface

3 If a picture paints a thousand words

4 Then why can't I paint you

5 The words will never show

6 The you I've come to know

7 If a face could launch a thousand ships

8 Then where am I to go

9 There's no one home but you

10 You're all that's led me to

11 And when my love for life is running dry

12 You come and pour yourself for me

13 If a man could be two places at one time

14 I'd be with you

15 Tomorrow and today

16 Beside you all the way

17 If the world should stop revolving

18 Spinning slowly down tonight

19 I'd spend the end with you

20 And when the world was due

21 Then one by one the stars would all go out

22 Then you and I would simply fly away
