If It Weren't For You

Lyrics: Danny O'Keefe

 

Lost on earth, out to sea, or in the air

A car or a train a boat or a plane couldn't get me there

(But) love's the way that led me to you

And love keeps leading me on

 

When I rolled in, I knew it was true

Wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you

I found myself coming out of the blue

Wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you

 

If I could only make one wish come true somehow

You know all I'd wish for love to be is here and now

(Cuz) love's the way that led me to you

And love keeps leading me on

 

(Ain't) No choosing between tomorrow or yesterday

Now is the only time we have love's the way

It's a whole wide world that I came to

Wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you

I feel reborn, feel brand new

Wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you

 

Love is the way to open your heart when you open your arms

Love is the key to all we can see

We're eye to eye again, the door swings open

 

When I rolled in, I knew it was true

Wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you

I found myself coming out of the blue

Wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you

There ain't no one, anywhere else would do

Wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you

I'm a cat with nine lives, you saved me a few

Wouldn't be here now, if it weren't for you
