If I
Harmony of Love: Aloe Blacc's Musical Plea for Connection
Lyrics
If I sang a song
If I express my feelings through a song
Would you sing with me?
Are you willing to join me in singing?
Said if I sang a song
Reiteration of expressing feelings through a song
Song, would you sing with me?
Asking again if you would join in singing the song
If I danced a step
If I take a dance step
Would you dance with me?
Are you willing to dance with me?
(Dance with me)
(Reiteration) Invitation to dance together
If I shed a tear
If I show vulnerability by shedding a tear
Would you cry with me?
Would you show empathy and cry alongside me?
And if I told a lie
If I speak an untruth
Would you fall with me
Would you face the consequences with me?
All of these things I do for you
Expressing commitment and actions done for the other person
Give me a chance
Requesting an opportunity for a chance
To prove to you
Asking for a chance to demonstrate the sincerity of love
My love is true
Asserting the truthfulness of love
If I had to go
If I had to depart
Would you leave with me?
Are you willing to accompany me?
Said if I had to go
Reiteration of the possibility of departure
Go, would you leave with me?
Asking again if you would leave together
If I had no food
If I faced scarcity of food
Would you cook for me?
Would you take care of me by cooking?
(Cook for me)
(Reiteration) Requesting assistance in providing sustenance
If I told a joke
If I share humor through a joke
Would you laugh with me?
Would you share laughter with me?
And if I asked for you to change
If I request a change from you
Would you change for me?
Are you willing to adapt for the sake of the relationship?
All of these things I do for you,
Reiterating actions done for the other person
Give me a chance
Requesting another chance for validation
To prove to you
Asking for an opportunity to prove love
All of these things I do for you
(Reiteration) Repeating actions done for the other person
Give me a chance to prove to you
Requesting one more chance to prove love
My love is true
Asserting the truthfulness of love
If I had to die
If facing the possibility of death
Would you pray for me?
Requesting prayers from the other person
If I had to die
(Reiteration) Repeating the scenario of facing death
Die, would you pray for me? (would you pray for me)
Asking for prayers in the event of death
