If a picture paintspaintpainted a thousand words,
Then why won'tdon'tcan't I paint you?
The words will never show the you I've donewantedcome to know.
If a face could loungelaunchlong a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home butandis you,
You're all that's restleftlet me too.
And when my love for life is running highwhydry,
You come and lostpourcall yourself on me.

If a girl (original: a man) could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the waydayMay.
If the world should stop revolving spinspinningspinnedslowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was flewthrewthrough,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply diehidefly away

Now it is time to have a look of the original version by Bread
