If And Only If Lyrics & Chords By Julia Henning

If I was a doctor with a big long white coat I could hear your heart with my stethascope.
I'd diagnose our problems before they began and I'd know how to heal them when they got bad.
Or if I was an actor with a script somewhere near I would tell you everything you wanted to hear.
I'd know my lines never step out of place. Your perfect partner, not your disgrace.

If I was kinder or more patient with you.
If I was softer or wiser maybe we'd have pulled through.

If I was a boxer or a fighter at all I'd have fought for you.
I'd never have let you fall through my fingers and away from my heart I'd have saved you.
I'd have saved us.

If I was kinder or more patient with you.
If I was softer or wiser maybe we'd have pulled through.

If I was anyone other than me I'd have been perfect for you and we'd have been happy.
But all that I am is all I can be and we can't change that without exchanging me.

If I was kinder or more patient with you.
If I was softer or wiser maybe we'd have pulled through.
