if
Carol Banawa Lyrics

If a picture paints a thousand words,
This person is unable to express their love for another through words and needs to find another way.

Then why can't I paint you?
The person is struggling to find a way to express their love for the other person clearly and effectively.

The words will never show
The person acknowledges that words alone cannot fully express the depth of their feelings for the other person.

The you I've come to know.
There is a deeper understanding and connection that this person has with the other person that goes beyond words.

If a face could launch a thousand ships,
The person is referencing the beauty of the other person and how it's not enough to convey their feelings for them.

Then where am I to go?
The person does not know where to turn to express their love for the other person adequately.

There's no one home but you,
The other person is their only refuge and support system.

You're all that's left me too.
The person relies heavily on the other person for love and support.

And when my love for life is running dry,
This person has moments of feeling down and struggling with life, but the other person brings them back to life and gives them hope.

You come and pour yourself on me.
The other person lifts the person up and helps them feel rejuvenated.

If a man could be two places
The person wishes they could be with the other person always.

At one time I'd be with you.
This person wants to be with the other person all the time, regardless of any obstacles or limitations.

Tomorrow and today,
The person desires to be with the other person not only in the present but also in the future.

Beside you all the way.
The person wants to be by the other person's side through all of life's ups and downs.

If the world should stop revolving
This person imagines a catastrophic event, but still, they want to be with the other person through anything and everything.

Spinning slowly down to die,
The person envisions the end of the world, and despite this, they still want to be with the other person.

I'd spend the end with you.
The person wants to spend their last moments with the other person.

And when the world was through,
This person foresees the end of the world, but they want to be with the other person even after that.

Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Everything would come to an end, including celestial bodies, but their love will still remain.

Then you and I would simply fly away
Despite everything, the person imagines flying together with the other person, free and uninhibited.

If a man could be two places
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.

At one time I'd be with you.
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.

Tomorrow and today,
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.

Beside you all the way.
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.

If the world should stop revolving
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.

Spinning slowly down to die,
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.

I'd spend the end with you.
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.

And when the world was through,
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.

Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Reiterating the desire that their love remains even after everything ends.

Then you and I would simply fly away
Reiterating the desire to always be with the other person.
