"If
I Loved You" by Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein II (from
CAROUSEL)
If I loved you,
time and again I would try to say
all I'd want you to know.
If I loved you,
words wouldn't come in an easy way;
'round in circles I'd go!
Longing to tell you, but afraid and shy,
I'd let my golden chances pass me by.
Soon you'd leave me;
off you would go in the mist of day,
never, never to know
how I loved you,
if I loved you.
