If The Choice Was Mine Lyrics

The sky is painting us a sunset while the shadow of our summer is passing us by
And in it's parting breeze i feel my arms losing their grip around you... you're slipping away

Sporting a smile that is false and full of sadness
She's wearing a look that says im trying my hardest not

To cry

No one walks these streets as much as we do or makes me feel the way that you do
Everyone is jealous but no one speaks
And no one's looked at me through eyes like yours or talked to me in a sweeter voice than you
Please don't forget me while you're away

And if the choice was mine i would place you in the heavens
Right next to our star
And if the choice was mine i would let your beauty compliment the sky

The sky...grows dark.. you leave... today
The sky...grows dark...you've left... today

And if i had the time to find the perfect way to show you how i feel
Then girl i would
And if i had the time, and if the choice was mine
I would let your beauty compliment the sky
