lyrics
If this song it were a river
I would wash your body clean
And if that river were a moon beam
I would shine on pretty things
And if that moonbeam lit the ocean
I would keep you safe at sea
And with those waves I’d rock you
I would roll you into me

And all through time
I would be here by your side
By and by
Hallelujah hallelai
I will write accidental lullabies
I will write accidental lullabies

If this song it were a shepherd
I would help you count your sheep
And if that shepherd had a shadow
I would follow at your feet
And if that shadow were created
By the sunset through the trees
With my shepherd sunset shadow
I would lull you into sleep

And all through time…

If this song it were a paintbrush
I would paint you here with me
And if your dream should call for music
I’d paint you a tambourine
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man
Won’t you play your song for me?
And we would be alone together
Painting landscapes for your sweetest dreams
