Lyrics Post: If I Loved You

[jhameia]

I don't know why I'm even bothering. I have an MP3 of Michael Crawford (the original Phantom of the Opera and the one who should have starred in the movie thankyouverymuch) singing If I Loved You from the Carousel soundtrack, and I didn't even know there was a movie / show called Carousel. As usual, he sounds absolutely divine, and the lyrics are just so fine, so fine.


But somehow I can see
Just exactly how I'd be-

If I loved you,
Time and again I would try to say
All I'd want you to know.
If I loved you,
Words wouldn't come in an easy way
Round in circles I'd go!
Longin' to tell you,
But afraid and shy,
I'd let my golden chances pass me by!
Soon you'd leave me,
Off you would go in the mist of day,
Never, never to know how I loved you
If I loved you.

OMG thats a hot song! Michael Crawford seems to have this effect on me... especialy his song Music of the Night
I can sleep on that song.

Told you his voice was divine! He's just got a sexy voice, 'nuff said.

I think I'll go to HMV tomorrow and see if I can find of his albums.

Heh, those lyrics are really telling.

Who sings about the lament they would feel for a situation they are not even in, knowing themselves well enough to see their destructive relationship patterns?

Amazing.
