What if I were you and you were I?
Do you think we could ever see eye to eye?
Would you make me laugh would I make you cry?
Or could we help each other to fly?
Take to the wind
Fly so high
To the clouds pinned
In a deep blue sky
Do you think we could do it?
Could we make it fly?
You never know, we could give it a try.
Looking down at the trouble and strife
Every man has with his ever-loving wife
It’s no way to live, it’s no kind of life.
Looking down at all the trouble and pain
Every woman has with her husband, again
It’s no way to live, apportioning blame.
Let’s change places, show different faces
Let’s try to see each other’s point of view.
Let’s change places and whatever dare face us
It’s us against the world, just me and you.
I think it’ll fly, it’s worth a try
Don’t you think?
Come what may whatever which way
Don’t you ever forget I’m here to stay
Oh, and by the way, it slipped my mind,
I didn’t really mean to be unkind
I simply forgot to kiss you and say,
I love you.
Do you mind?
