If I Had You
Unlocking Joy: Discovering Life's Colors Through 'If I Had You'
Lyrics
I could show the world how to smile
I could demonstrate happiness to the world.
I could be glad all of the while
I could experience joy constantly.
I could change the grey skies to blues
I could turn gloomy days into cheerful ones.
If I had you
Expressing a desire for someone's companionship (If I had you).
I could leave the old days behind
I could leave the past behind.
Leave all my pals, I'd never mind
Being willing to leave friends behind for the right person.
I could start my life all a new
I could start a new chapter in my life.
If I had you
Reiterating the desire for the person's presence (If I had you).
I could climb the snow capped mountains
Expressing readiness to undertake challenging tasks.
Sail the mighty ocean wide
Expressing a willingness to explore vast and challenging experiences.
I could cross the burning desert
Ready to face difficult situations with the person by one's side.
If I had you by my side
Highlighting the importance of having the person as a companion.
I could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Expressing a feeling of regal status, yet acknowledging the absence of official recognition.
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
Indicating a willingness to be content in any financial or social situation.
There is nothing I couldn't do
Confident assertion that having the person is the key to achieving anything.
If I had you
Reiterating the idea that having the person would empower and enable.
I could show the world how to smile
Restating the potential to bring joy to the world.
I could be glad all of the while
Reaffirming the capability to experience constant joy.
I could change the grey skies to blues
Reiterating the power to transform sadness into happiness.
If I had you
Expressing the desire for the person's presence once again.
I could leave the old days behind
Reiterating the willingness to leave the past behind.
Leave all my pals, I'd never mind
Emphasizing the readiness to part with friends for the person.
I could start my life all a new
Expressing the readiness to start afresh.
If I had you
Repeating the desire for the person's presence.
I could climb the snow capped mountains
Reiterating the willingness to take on challenges, specifically using snow-capped mountains as a metaphor.
Sail the mighty ocean wide
Expressing a readiness to explore vast experiences, metaphorically represented by the mighty ocean.
I could cross the burning desert
Reiterating the preparedness to face challenging situations.
If I had you by my side
Stressing the importance of the person's companionship in facing challenges.
I could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Expressing a sense of regal stature without formal recognition, dependent on the person.
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
Acknowledging contentment in any social or financial state with the person.
There is nothing I couldn't do
Reiterating the idea that anything is achievable with the person.
