If You Were

Would you like to be a color, Which one would you be? Would it be dark and mysterios Like a lake in the night Or an ocean, feral and deep? Would it be bright and sparkling Like virgin snow in dawn, Or in the sunlight the sea? Would it be jarring and motley Like a paradise bird Or wild flowers dancing with glee? Would you like to be a sound, Which one would it Would it be soft and soothing Like in summer the sea Or like thunder, ferocious and free? Would it be music Mild, mellow, and sweet Or heavy and thrilling the beat? Would it be nature or art Like a song in the forest Or even a great master's symphony? You got your choice Its all up to you You got the power To decide - What you are What you want, what you do. Think it over, and then Pick the right If you were what you are Would it be what youd like? Would it match your ideas Like a groom and a bride And color the picture all right? Would it meet what you need Like a sound be in tune And harmonize with your view? Or would it just be phoney, fake and mere façade, Or really truly be you |
