LYRICS

If
© Sweet Jelly 2009

Verse 1:
If you read that letter
I folded neatly
You know how I can be
I let excitement
Cloud my judgment
Thats the problem with me
If theres a ring of fire
I run right in it
Burning all that I had
If I could see it
Things might be be different
Ah but Ill screw it up somehow

Chorus 1:
If means on condition that
If means not definite--but you knew that
If means allowing that
Ifs in-the event that you love me
But I can tell that you're not listening...
So

Verse 2:
If I see you later.
Would you talk to me?
Or would you turn and walk away?
I really wish you wouldnt
But I think you might
Who could blame you anyway?
If I took a hundred
Thousand sleeping pills
Would you miss me at all?
Thats the wine that started
Talking crazy but Im sure that you can tell

Chorus

Verse 3:
Theres an irony
Thats oh so fitting
And it has a funny smell
That ring of fire
That Im standing in
Feels an awful lot like hell

Chorus 2x's
